A wonderful attraction for the whole family, the Butterfly Conservatory is home to over 2,000 tropical butterflies, which fly around freely within the lush confines of the conservatory. Located on the grounds of the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens, just 10 minutes north of the falls, the Butterfly Conservatory features a network of paths and walkways winding their way through a rich, tropical rainforest environment consisting of ponds, waterfalls and verdant vegetation. The conservancy features an Emergence Window where the butterflies pupate and take their first flight, as well as a short, informative video presentation on the conservancy and educational materials for teachers and school trips.
