Niagara Falls





Have finally visited one of the most spectacular sights of Canada. Even frozen the Falls offer sights that take your breath away. Beware though of the mist in winter, can freeze on contact. Whilst viewing the Falls you can experience the strength and sheer volume through the sites and sounds surrounding you. By the way the Falls deliver more than a million bathtubs of water per minute.
Situated beside Niagara Falls is downtown Niagara. As you can see from the images, I visited the more tacky sites. The main strip, Clifton Hill is full of haunted houses, Ripley's Believe It or Not and the Guiness Book of Records shop (note statue of tallest man), plus variety of food shops etc. Quite an interesting mix for what is considered one of the most romantic escapes of Canada.
