    Niagara Falls - New York

    Niagara Falls is a group of three spectacular waterfalls located at the southern end of the Niagara Gorge, straddling the border between Ontario, Canada, and New York, USA. Formed by the Niagara River, which carries water from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario before eventually flowing into the Atlantic Ocean via the Gulf of Saint Lawrence, the falls boast the highest flow rate of any waterfall in North America with a vertical drop of over 50 meters (160 feet).

    The Niagara Whirlpool reaches a maximum depth of 125 feet and is believed to have formed around 7,500 years ago through the upstream erosion of the Niagara Escarpment by the powerful flow of the Niagara River.

    ------------------------------
    Maid of The Mist

    What makes Niagara Falls truly spectacular is the combination of its height and immense volume. During peak daytime hours, over 6 million cubic feet (168,000 cubic meters) of water rushes over the crest every minute. The famous Maid of the Mist boat tour brings passengers as close as possible to the falls, sailing right into the mist created by the powerful cascade as the Niagara River plunges over the edge.

    ------------------------------
    Or Old Fort Niagara State Park

    Old Fort Niagara is a historic landmark with over 300 years of history. Its strategic location on the shores of Lake Ontario made it a key stronghold in several major conflicts, including the French and Indian War, the American Revolutionary War, and the War of 1812. Beyond its rich history, the fort is beautifully set against the stunning backdrop of Lake Ontario.

    ------------------------------

    Cave of the Winds

    The Cave of the Winds, located on the New York side of Niagara Falls, offers visitors an unforgettable experience—walking right up to the base of Bridal Veil Falls, where the powerful water crashes down just inches away and flows beneath the wooden walkways.
