We Enjoyed The Tunnel Experience
Niagara Parks Power Station的点评
点评：The Niagara Parks Power Station was the final stop on our Niagara-themed itinerary for the day. We were looking forward to this site because of its history and the promise of interactive nighttime displays; unfortunately, we must’ve arrived too late (7:20PM) because there was no such thing on offer. Thus, we spent some time reading the information boards which, while enlightening, weren’t quite as exciting as, say, a show with a Tesla coil or a guide explaining what we were looking at and its relation to Niagara Falls (well, for me, at least . . . my partner was totally geeking out looking at all the equipment!). Still, it was nice to see this 115 year old hydroelectric marvel fully restored and sharing its narrative to a curious audience.
The highlight of this experience, for us, was “The Tunnel.” While inside the Power Station, you descend 180 feet in a glass-paneled elevator to the aforementioned tunnel. The descent is both fascinating and a little eerie as you see old equipment – rusted away with time – on your way down. I wonder what stories these rusted pieces could tell? Anyway, the tunnel walk takes about 15 minutes one-way and is, itself, quite fascinating. Since we were partaking in a “night” experience, the tunnel was illuminated in a rainbow of colours and was quite lovely! As you amble along the tunnel, you can observe water running down the walls. This might give some reason to pause, but it’s completely natural and all part of the underground experience. Remember, you have a massive wall of water overhead – approximately 20% of the world’s surface fresh water supply!
Once you reach the observation platform, you are treated to some beautiful views of the Horseshoe Falls. A lot of the earlier TripAdvisor reports have said this experience is redundant or duplicates what can be seen at the “Journey Behind the Falls;” however, I’d suggest that’s not entirely accurate. Yes, they both provide unique views of Niagara Falls, but I think those who don’t like big crowds might actually prefer The Tunnel experience here @ the Niagara Parks Power Station exactly because it isn’t anywhere near as crowded. In addition, you also get decent views of the American Falls from The Tunnel observation area. Thus, I think there’s value in checking out both experiences!
In future, if we return to this site, we’ll endeavour to visit the Power Station earlier so as to partake in a tour. That way, we can fully appreciate the role this historic plant played in the hydroelectric process.

翻译：尼亚加拉公园发电站是我们当天以尼亚加拉为主题的行程中的最后一站。我们一直很期待参观此地，因为它有着深厚的历史底蕴，而且据说还有夜间互动展示项目；可惜我们到达的时间实在太晚了（晚上7点20分），根本看不到这些展示。于是我们只能花些时间阅读周围的介绍牌。虽然这些内容挺有启发性的，但显然没有其他项目那么有趣。一场有特斯拉线圈演示的表演，或者有一名讲解员来介绍我们所看到的一切及其与尼亚加拉瀑布的关联（嗯，至少对我来说是这样……我的同伴则完全沉浸在对各种设备的观察中，像个技术迷一般！）。不过，能看到这座有着115年历史的水力发电奇迹被彻底修复，并向充满好奇心的观众讲述它的故事，也确实是一件好事。
对我们而言，这次体验的亮点就是“那条隧道”。当我们身处发电站内时……你乘坐装有玻璃面板的电梯，下行180英尺便可抵达前述的隧道。下行的过程既引人入胜又略带诡异之感——沿途可以看到诸多因岁月侵蚀而生锈的旧设备。我不禁好奇，这些锈迹斑斑的物件能讲述怎样的故事呢？总之，单向穿越隧道大约需要15分钟，过程本身就相当有趣。由于我们参加的是“夜间”体验项目，隧道内被各种色彩的灯光点缀得如彩虹般绚烂，美不胜收！当你漫步于隧道之中时……你可以看到水顺着墙壁流淌下来。这或许会让你稍作停顿，但这是完全正常的现象，也是地下体验的一部分。请记住，你的头顶有一堵巨大的水墙——那里储存着全球约20%的地表淡水资源！
登上观景台后，你便能欣赏到马蹄形瀑布的绝美景色。许多早期的TripAdvisor评论都称，这段体验显得多余，或者与“Journey Behind the Falls”项目展示的内容重复；不过我认为这种说法并不完全准确。诚然，这两者都能让人从独特的角度观赏尼亚加拉瀑布，但我认为那些不喜欢人挤人的游客或许会更青睐尼亚加拉公园发电站里的这条隧道体验——因为它的游客数量要少得多。此外……从隧道的观景区，你也能欣赏到不错的美国瀑布景观。因此，我觉得两种体验都值得一试！
以后如果我们再来这里，一定会尽量早点参观发电站，以便参加导览行程。这样我们就能充分了解这座历史悠久的发电站在水力发电过程中所发挥的作用了。
