Clifton Hill - The Entertainment & Dining District

This place should be the scenes for many 80's movies!  It has tourist trap written all over it with Capital letters!  Although it is great for kids!  Just not my spice on a work trip!  To each their own!

"The Street of Fun"- that's what the website calls this place. =)

This is Tourist Central for this area. This was only my 2nd time here, and unfortunately, since I happened to be visiting during the winter, half of everything was closed. We made do, though.

There was little to no crowd at all, which was a big change from the overcrowdedness of last summer. I enjoyed the Ripley's 4D Theatre, wax museum, amusement park, etc.They have so many tacky "touristy" stores, many of them sell the exact same products- for example, that damned maple syrup is in every other store.

Cheap shot glasses, hoodies, t-shirts and baby clothing with "I partied hard in Canada" or some other phrase written on there can be found in just about every souvenir shop. Lots of restaurants, shopping, and entertainment is here. There really is something for everybody here- just make sure you have the funds to do so!

And since I'm a chocoholic, we absolutely had to go to the Fudge Factory, and the other countless sweets stores they had.

Cool place.

HUGE tourist trap!  But who doesn't love one while on vacation!  Been coming here since I was a lil kid and I still enjoy this place.  I think it's all the lights and carni stuff that gets my jolly's in a uproar.

There is tons to do on the hill...walk through haunted houses, wax museums, walk through fun houses, indoor glow-in-the dark mini golf, places to eat, places to get wasted, amusement park gaming/video game centers and more!

Plus they have several souvenir shops to bargain at for a good deal on more tchotchkes and tshirts than one household needs!  Still fun to look through it all.
