Niagara Falls NY United States of America

Niagara Falls is in the Niagara Frontier region of New York State. The Niagara Falls consist of three sections. The large Canadian falls are also known as the Horseshoe Falls. They are separated by Goat Island from the American Falls, which are separated by a small island at their south end, from the narrow Bridal Veil falls. Each side of the falls offers a different perspective, and it is always best to visit both sides to maximize your experience. The American side gives a side-on view of the American Falls, and an observation point only 20 yards from the top of the falls. Although the Canadian side is touted for having the best view, the American side is a State Park, the oldest in the nation, so efforts have been made to preserve the natural beauty of the area and prevent the kind of commercialization that you'll find on the Canadian side. Visitors looking to experience the falls as a natural wonder will appreciate this side of the Falls and, moreover, there are a number of attractions designed to give different experiences of the falls such as the Cave of the Winds, the Maid of the Mist, the Niagara Gorge Discovery Center and the possibility to enjoy a helicopter ride over the falls. Stay a night and see the night view of the Niagara Falls. It is equally beautiful.
