Manhattan Square Park and Ice Rink

Even the most museum-hating children may not want to leave this enormous complex, featuring an arcade, a butterfly museum and a toy hall of fame.

From Ancient Egypt to Jackson Pollock and beyond, this sizable university museum brings works of art from the last 5,000 years to downtown Rochester.

Rochester’s primary waterfall is a gateway to both the beautiful nature of the Genesee River and the history of the industries that have marked it.

Fossils, a climbing wall, a planetarium and more fill this extensive museum, which is especially renowned for its kid-friendly Inventor Center.

Take a leisurely stroll over the Genesee River on this historic overpass, which offers some of the best views of the falls and the gorge beyond.

You can get tickets for a performance at Geva Theatre Center during your trip to Rochester. Experience the area's great live music or attend a sporting event.
