The Skylon Tower is located on Murray Street at Buchanan Avenue in the City of Niagara Falls overlooking Queen Victoria Park and the Falls. At approximately 520 feet, the Skylon Tower is the tallest structure in Niagara. The tower was opened in the autumn of 1964.
Take the yellow bug (exterior glass encased elevator) to the top observation deck or the revolving dining room. On a clear day a visitor can see a hundred miles. A must for photographers. Open Year Round.
For those with a taste for the extraordinary Skylon's Revolving Dining Room simply must be experienced. The award winning continental cuisine is presented in an elegant setting 775 ft. above the Falls.
Lunch or dinner, the menu is rivalled only by the view, which you can appreciate at leisure (one rotation per hour). Dine by night and you'll discover the unique atmosphere created by the illumination of the Falls.
Within the Dome of the Skylon Tower, the circular design and provision of three separate and complete levels make it possible for all visitors to enjoy an unobstructed view. Viewing conditions are further enhanced through the use of a special grey glass in the windows to diffuse sunlight and reduce glare. These windows allow for quality photographs to be taken from the inside deck on those occasions when inclement weather defers one from strolling the outside area.
