So you think you know Buffalo? Think again.

We've seen it and heard it countless times. After a day spent showing a visitor around town, they'll stop and say, “I had no idea.” This expression of surprise has happened so often we've given it a name: the “Who Knew?” effect. As in, “Who knew Buffalo was such a beautiful city?” or “Who knew there was so much to do here?” It’s one of the joys of showing off our city.

The new visitbuffaloniagara.com is designed to give you the insider’s perspective on our surprising city -- Buffalo, New York. You’ll find complete visitor information and travel planning resources for Buffalo and Niagara Falls, as well as everything you need to plan a great getaway, including information on Buffalo attractions, Buffalo hotels, Buffalo shopping, Buffalo events, and Buffalo dining. Come see what lies at the other end of Niagara’s rainbow.
