Watching 2,000 butterflies from over 45 different species flutter all around you in tropical warmth is truly a wonder to behold. The Butterfly Conservatory is a year-round indoor attraction that’s ideal for families, and little ones will be awestruck by the spectacle.
Following a short, informative video introduction, paths lead you through the rainforest setting past ponds and waterfalls to the Emergence window, where newly-hatched butterflies leave their pupae and prepare to take their first flight.
The Butterfly Conservatory is located on the grounds of the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens in Niagara Falls, 10 minutes north of the Falls. As with all Niagara Parks attractions, children 5 and under are free.

Our little guys love bugs - and this place blew their minds on how many butterflies there were! Brought the kids here once before and will definitely return - would only go during less busy tourist...

Visiting the falls in the winter this is a nice warm option. Stunning plants and so many butterfly specimen. Wheelchair ramps and very accessible

This was worth a visit if you have the Niagara parks adventure pass plus. Didn’t take us very long to walk around so wouldn’t have been impressed if we’d paid separately.
