Introduction
Niagara Falls is the spectacle where Lake Erie drains into Lake Ontario, its American Falls and Bridal Veil dropping 50+ metres beside the larger Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side. The U.S. Niagara Falls State Park — America's oldest — offers Prospect Point and the Crow's Nest, while the Cave of the Winds walkway takes you onto the spray-soaked rocks at the base of Bridal Veil. Rainbows arc through the mist; at night the falls are lit. A raw display of continental-scale hydrology, long a honeymoon and hydroelectric landmark.
