Cave of the Winds (New York)

It was discovered in 1834, and originally dubbed Aeolus's Cave, after the Greek god of winds.

[1] Guided tours began officially in 1841, through Goat Island and descending down a staircase closer to the falls, into the cave.

It officially reopened in 1924, bringing visitors to the front of the Bridal Veil instead of behind it, on a series of decks and walkways.

Tropical storm-like conditions can be experienced, as winds can reach up to 68 mph (109 km/h) underneath the falls.

[3] The cave was obliterated in a massive 1954 rockfall and subsequent dynamiting of a dangerous overhang.
