Niagara Falls is the favorite honeymoon spot for newlyweds from all over the world. It is also a very famous tourist destination. Niagara Falls is a collective name given to three separate waterfalls, namely the Horseshoe Falls (also called the Canadian Falls), the American Falls, and the Bridal Veil Falls. One of the most amazing and unique things about Niagara Falls is that the Horseshoe Falls are in Canada and the American Falls are in America. The comparatively small Bridal Veil Falls are also found in the United States. Niagara Falls also forms the international border between Canada’s Ontario province and the US state of New York. It is also famous for some of the extreme stunts performed by many stuntmen.
Niagara Falls attracts thousands of tourists each year. The best time of year to visit Niagara Falls is from May to September due to favorable weather. The renowned beauty of the falls is unmatched. It is both a natural and man-made wonder. Originally created by the forces of nature around 10,000 years ago, the falls begin to lose their charm due to erosion. In the late 19th century, various measures were taken to preserve and restore its natural beauty.
Both countries have different ways of pleasing tourists. On the US side, the American Falls can be seen from the boardwalks along Prospect Point Park. The Maid of the Mist tour boat is also a great way to get up close and personal with these falls. Little Goat Island offers a great view accessed by a bridge over the American Falls. The Cave of the Winds is also a great place to see. Niagara Falls State Park provides trolley service throughout the park and also has a small aquarium in the park. Helium balloon rides or helicopter rides are available for aerial views. In addition to tourism, this wonder also helps generate electricity from the New York Hydroelectric Dam. The use of water from the dam is controlled during the tourist season to maintain this natural attraction.
Queen Victoria Park on the Canadian side has platforms that give tourists an incredible view of the Canadian Falls and the American Falls. From the observation deck you can have the highest aerial view of the falls. A cable car is used to take tourists to Niagara Falls. After dark until midnight, the amazing view created by the floodlights on both sides of the falls is not something to be missed because it brings you an amazing and spectacular joy of the falls.
It is considered one of the best honeymoon places for its striking beauty. You can also opt for one of these international honeymoon destinations like Dubai, Malaysia, Singapore, Mauritius and Thailand. Honeymoon vacations spent in any of these destinations can be the cornerstone of a happy married life. They will give you so many good memories that you will cherish them throughout your life.
