About Buffalo


Being a massively populous city, Buffalo is one of the best cities in New York for people who want a culmination of leisure, natural retreats, and education. The city’s iconic site definitely has to be the City Hall with its lovely Art Deco style. Apart from it, other historical buildings are also found all over the city, especially the downtown area.

In the past few years, over a billion dollars have been spent on making Buffalo more attractive and contemporary. Thus, the city now has a ton of restaurants and other attractions along the waterfront.

Meanwhile, the Buffalo Metro Rail connects different parts of the city, including the Canalside region and downtown, where entertainment activities, live music, dining, and shopping are easily available.
