I am a very lucky person because I saw the Niagara Falls last week. The name "Niagara" comes

from the Iroquois Indian word "Onguiaahra", it means "the strait". Niagara Falls is a very popular

place for a honeymoon. I spent some time in the U.S. state of New York so I went to see the

wonderful Falls on the Niagara River. It was really amazing.

Niagara Falls have 3 smaller falls, the Horseshoe Falls, American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls.

There are 2 islands between the falls, Luna Island and Goat Island. The international border

between the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state of New York crosses the Falls.

Horseshoe Falls lie on the Canadian side but American Falls, Goat Island, Luna Island and Bridal

Veil Falls are on the American side.

The view and the sounds there are fantastic. The ice formed The Falls about 10,000 years ago.

Then the ice melted and it became Niagara Falls. It is beautiful and very useful. It’s power plants

produce electricity. The height of the Falls is 323 metres and 110,000 cubic metres of water falls

down every minute.

Niagara Falls is wonderful in the summer evenings with it’s colourful lights. More than 20 million

tourists visit the Falls each year. They just love the Cave of the Winds tour. That cave is 178 years

old, it's 40 m high, 30 m wide and 9 m deep. The first guided tours started in 1841. You can walk

very near the Falls.

Another exciting adventure is the Maid of the Mist tour. The Maid of the Mist is a ship which takes

you very near the Falls. This cruise started in 1846.

There are many interesting facts in the history of the Niagara Falls. The water and the mist can

sometimes make 5 m thick "ice bridges" between the banks. Until 1912 visitors could walk under

the Falls on these bridges. In 1888, 20,000 people were together on the ice. However, on February

4th 1912 the "bridge" broke up and 3 tourists died.

In 1969, workers stopped the Falls for a few months. Scientists wanted to make a nicer view. The

project did not continue because it was too expensive.

A lot of people wanted to break records on the Falls in the past, too. A 63-year-old woman was the

first get over Niagara in a barrel. High wire tightrope acts are also very popular. On June 15, 2012,

Nik Wallenda walked across the Falls without support. Nik thinks that he keeps the all time record.

There were many accidents at the Falls in the past. Roger Woodward was seven when he fell into

the water and fell down the Niagara Falls. He wore only a life vest and survived! People on the

Maid of the Mist boat saved him.

Niagara Falls are scary and beautiful at the same time. Go and see it!

Seeing Niagara Falls has definitely been one of the greatest experiences of my life.

The name itself "Niagara" comes from the Iroquois Indian word "Onguiaahra" which means "the

strait". This place is known as one of the hottest honeymoon destinations.

Roving in the U.S. state of New York, I obviously found time to see the breath-taking Niagara Falls

on the Niagara River. Well, it was worth travelling all that distance.

Niagara Falls are a chain of three waterfalls. This chain is broken up by 2 islands, Goat Island and

Luna Island. The international border between the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state

of New York is crossed by the Falls, so Horseshoe Falls lies on the Canadian side but American Falls,

Goat Island, Luna Island and Bridal Weil Falls are located on the American side.

There are no words to describe the view and the sounds there. The Wisconsin glaciation started

forming the Falls more than 10,000 years ago. After the ice had retreated northward, its meltwater

began to flow down to create Niagara Falls.

It is not only beautiful, it is also an essential source of hydroelectric power. The power plants are

supported by an average daily amount of 110,000 cubic metres of flowing water per minute which

rains down from the height of 323 metres.

Niagara Falls is an evening attractions as well, especially during the peak holiday time, in the

summertime. Floodlights illuminate the sides until midnight. The average annual number of visitors

is more than 20 million. The oldest and most famous tourist attraction has been the Cave of the

Winds tour. The cave was discovered in 1834 and the first guided tours began in 1841 in the 40 m

high, 30 m wide and 9 m deep cave. Walkways of redwood decks bring visitors to the front of

Bridal Veil Falls. Another exciting attraction is the Maid of the Mist boat cruise. The passengers are

carried into the rapids, right under the falls. This cruise has been going on since 1846.

As the years passed, several weird events have occurred at the Falls that sound like thunder. The

enormous volume of water never stops flowing. Mingling with the mist, it can create ice formations

along the banks and the falls, sometimes as thick as 5 metres.

The ice may stretch across the river and form an "ice bridge". Until 1912 visitors were able to walk

over the "ice bridge" and see the Falls from below. According to a newspaper report in 1888, one

day about 20,000 people gathered on the ice. However on February 4th 1912 the "bridge" broke up

and 3 tourists died.

There was one time when people managed to stop the Falls flowing for a couple of months in 1969

so as to make the river bed nicer. They soon realized that their project was too costly.

Venturesome people have tried to conquer the Falls time after time. The first person to survive

getting over the Niagara in a barrel was a 63 years old female schoolteacher.

High wire tightrope acts have been performed over the falls for many years. On June 15, 2012, Nik

Wallenda was the first person to walk across the Falls in 116 years.. According to Nik, it has been

the longest unsupported tightrope walk ever. And it was over the roaring Falls!

Despite some fatal accidents, many people have survived incidents at the Falls. Roger Woodward, a

seven-year-old American boy, was dragged into Horseshoe Falls in 1960. He was protected only by

a life vest when tumbling down the huge Falls.

Minutes later, Roger was rescued by the crew of the Maid of the Mist boat.

Niagara Falls are both frightening and beautiful. Don't believe it? Go give it a try.

Seeing and hearing Niagara Falls is an experience that you’ll probably never forget.

The name itself "Niagara” originates from the Iroquois Indian word "Onguiaahra", meaning "the

strait". This area is a honeymoon destination widely yearned for.

Roving in the U.S. state of New York I spared some time for visiting the breath-taking Niagara Falls

on the Niagara River. Well, never in my life had I seen such a wonder, I tell you.

Niagara Falls, the chain of three waterfalls, is interrupted by 2 islands, Goat Island and Luna Island.

Since the international border between the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state of New

York is intersected by the Falls itself, Horseshoe Falls lies on the Canadian side but American Falls,

Goat Island, Luna Island and Bridal Veil Falls are located on the American side.

The view and the sound are both beyond expression. Their evolution of the Falls started with the

Wisconsin glaciation some 10,000 years ago. No sooner had the ice retreated northward than its

meltwater began to flow down forming Niagara Falls.

The Falls is significant both for its beauty and as an essential source of hydroelectric power. The

power plants are supported by an average daily amount of the flowing water of approximately

110,000 cubic metres per minute from the height of 323 metres.

Niagara Falls make for a unique evening attraction as well, primarly during the peak holiday season.

The sides are illuminated with floodlights. The average annual number of visitors amounts to over 20

millions. The oldest hot spot has been the Cave of the Winds tour. The cave was discovered in 1834

and the first guided tours began in 1841 in the 40 m by 30 m by 9 m cave. Visitors are brought to

the front of Bridal Veil Falls on walkways of redwood.. Another popular attraction is the Maid of the

Mist boat cruise, when the passengers are carried into the roaring rapids, right beneath the falls. This

cruise has been going on since 1846.

The years haven't been uneventful around the thunder-sounding Falls. The enormous volume of

constantly flowing water accompanied by the mist is capable of developing 5m-thick ice formations

along the banks and the falls.

In long cold winters, expectably, the ice stretches across the river, forming the "ice bridge". Until

1912 visitors were allowed to walk across the ice bridge and see the Falls from below. As one

newspaper report puts it, about 20,000 people sledged on the ice in 1888. However, on February 4th

1912 the bridge broke up leaving 3 people dead.

Not only the mass of ice formation stopped the Falls flowing but once human effort managed to do

that as well for scientific purposes for a few months in 1969. Loose rocks were to be removed from

the base of the falls in order to make the beds more attractive. However, this project soon proved to

be financially unfeasible.

Venturesome people can't help conquering the Falls. The first person to survive getting over the

Niagara in a barrel was a 63-year-old female schoolteacher.

High wire tightrope acts have been performed above the falls for ages. On June 15, 2012, Nik

Wallenda became the first one to walk across the Falls after a 116-year-prohibition, having received

special permission from the government. As Wallenda puts it, never before had anyone completed a

longer unsupported tightrope walk.

Despite some fatal accidents, many people have come out unscathed from the turbulant rapids..

Roger Woodward, a seven-year-old American boy, protected only by a life vest, was dragged into

Horseshoe Falls in 1960 while his 17-year-old sister Deanne was being pulled from the river by two

tourists, only 6 m from the lip of the Horseshoe Falls at Goat Island. Roger went over the Falls, and

minutes later, he was plucked from the whirling pool under the Horseshoe Falls, grabbing a life ring

which was thrown to him by the crew of the Maid of the Mist boat.

The view of Niagara Falls can be described both beautiful and frightening. It's not just mist, it's also a

must.
