Things To Do in Ithaca

Cayuga Lake

5/5

5 Reviews

e21***17Ithaca High School, located on the banks of Cayuga Lake, was founded in the mid-19th century. It was originally a two-year preparatory school for Cornell University students and later changed to a public high school. American public schools implement compulsory education. Students only need to prepare a schoolbag, and the rest are free. If the family is in difficulties, even lunch is provided for free. The four-year study in high school, like university, is divided into compulsory and elective courses, and a credit system. The school’s facilities and equipment are similar. Students can use indoor facilities free of charge, while outdoor tennis and football fields can be used by residents for free. Students are also under great pressure to study and have a lot of homework. To enter a prestigious school, they must work hard and arrange to volunteer once a week. In short, whether you are born rich or poor, you have the basic guarantee of receiving compulsory education. It is a nail, there is always a chance to come up!

Ithaca Waterfalls

4.5/5

塔熊Ithaca Falls should be a group of waterfalls in the canyon. The most downstream is called Ithaca Falls, which has the largest water volume. There are four waterfalls from the upper reaches to the lower reaches. The second waterfall cannot be approached, only one Watching from the pedestrian suspension bridge, there is a trail for the second waterfall. Go down and find it at the top of the waterfall, which is actually invisible. There are canyons and waterfalls in a large campus, and there is only Cornell in the world.

Buttermilk Falls State Park

5/5

cy995The milk waterfall in the small town of Ithaca is very good. The drop of the waterfall is not very large, but due to the special topography, the water seems to flow down from one step to the next. There are a lot of bubbles in the water, so it seems to flow like milk. When you come down, you can climb along the road next to the waterfall to find the source of the waterfall.

Museum of the Earth

cy995Very good museum, you can calm down and take a closer look, knowing that there are fewer people here and here. So there won't be too many people to disturb your thoughts, you can watch and associate, completely calm in your own world.

Canyon

Town

山茶叶蛋糕Join a tour group from New York to Niagara, this is an attraction on the way. This is a state park. Most of the visitors are Americans. There are few Chinese tourists and the entrance is very simple. I thought it was a spot that the travel agency found for replenishment. After entering the scenic spot, I found it was very worthwhile. The Grand Canyon is composed of regular flaky layered rocks, the canyon is long and has beautiful lines.
