Niagara Falls, a history of 12000 years. Review on Niagara Falls

Few months ago, we had a chance to visit Niagara Falls in USA. It was one of the most wonderful experience we had. It is said Niagara Falls is 12000 years old.

We had joined a conducted group tour. Therefore everything was prearranged for us. We stayed in the hotel Sheraton by Falls, that was a walking distance from the falls. We reached there in the evening and we were immediately taken to see the spectacular view at night.

*On one side of the falls is Canada on the other side is America**.

There were **fireworks at the fall**, on the side of Canada, to greet us.:)

Next morning, we were again taken to Niagara Falls State Park. First of all we went to IMax theater at visitors center. There was saw a very interesting documentary on Niagara Falls, giving  facts and history about the falls. **It showed how it was always man's dream to walk a tightrope across the falls or to plunge with the Niagara Falls and come out alive.*

Then our group boarded Niagara Trolley and we were taken to'**Maid of the Mist**'. This involved a boat trip to the point, right near the falls and we felt the **Niagara Falls water sprinkled on us**.

After the boat trip, we went to'**Cave of the Winds**'. Here was saw **mighty power of water fall** from a very close distance. We had to hold the railings around, for not falling off and keeping us steady.

Our next stop was at'**Aquarium of Niagara**'. Here we saw so many species of colorful aquatic animals and coral reefs. We even saw performances by sea lions in the pond.

Last stop was at'**Niagara Discovery Center**'. Here again we saw a documentary, that I didn't find so interesting.

The entire area is very well connected by Niagara Falls Scenic Trolley. It runs up and down in the entire area, having 6 stops in between. One is free to get on and off, as per one's wishes. It is all included in the Niagara Discovery Pass.

Its a beautiful natural scenic place, full of greenery and the sound of mighty waterfall everywhere you go.

If given a chance, we will like to visit Niagara Falls again!
