The Niagara Falls lying across the border between Canada and the United States.
They where formed towards the end of the last ice age,when the glaciers of the Laurentide ice sheet retreated and created the great lakes.
On the American side of the border,the Niagara falls carry about 10 percent of the flow,while on the Canadian side the horseshoe falls carry far more.
The water flows at an astonishing 35 mph.The thunder of the water is when you are faced with the sheer noise of almost 185000 cubicmeters of water roaring into the gorge every minute.
When entering the base of the horseshoe its a truly wet experience,but the photogenic views as the sun creates rainbows is really fantastic.
A well worth place to visit for travellers and dont forget the camera,you dont want to miss this.
