Niagara Falls Viewing

While there are plenty of things to do in the Niagara Falls region, almost everyone comes for one simple reason...the Falls!  The largest waterfalls in North America are here and they are a spectacular site.  

While you can get a half-decent view from the American side of the falls, it's the Canadian side that will really open up your eyes.  Viewing the American Falls from Canada shows them very majestically, especially at night when they are all lit up in various colors.


During the day, the falls also look breathtaking.  However, it should be noted that on a foggy day, they can be difficult to see, so hopefully your trip there won't coincide with fog.  Walking along the park, you'll get various views of the Falls and you can probably spend all day doing this if you love seeing nature at its best.



In addition to the American Falls, there are the Canadian Horseshoe Falls, which are much larger.  The view to them can be slightly obscured by the mist surrounding them due to their crashing into the Niagara River, but nonetheless, they are still a wonderful sight.  In addition, when you get even relatively close to them, you'll start feeling the mist they cause.
