Without a doubt, Niagara Falls is considered the most famous waterfall in the world. It may not be the largest, nor the tallest but her splendour has yet to fail in attracting and amazing inspired artists and impassionate lovers throughout the globe. Day or night, you won't be able to tear yourself away from this wondrous spectacle; great bands of water plummet over the edge and create a resonating roar down below. Even in winter, when the flow is partially hidden and the edges freeze solid, Niagara Falls reminds us just how amazing our natural world is.
