SCENIC AMERICA: Niagara Falls is not even close to being among the world's tallest waterfalls. But the popularity of the falls is another matter. Niagara Falls ranks number five in a survey of the world's most visited attractions.
 
 
 
 
ON A MUSICAL NOTE: The Kentucky Music Hall of Fame & Museum in Renfro Valley honors a wide variety of musicians with ties to the Bluegrass state. Many, but not all of the honored artists, are bluegrass or country performers.
 
 
OFF THE BEATEN PATH: Pulled by a horse along the adjoining towpath, the canal boat at Metamora, Indiana is just one of the reasons thousands of people descend on the town for Canal Days each fall. It's a chance to celebrate the 19th century canal heritage of Metamora.
 
 
 
TIME CAPSULE: The cartoon character Betty Boop first came to movie screens when "talkies" were still new. She became enormously popular through more than 100 cartoons in the 1930s.
 

SEASONAL FEATURE: A Sauerkraut Festival was organized more than 40 years ago to draw tourists to tiny Waynesville, Ohio. Now the event draws about 350,000 people from across the country each year.
