ONTARIO - NIAGARA FALLS Go ahead and gasp—it won't be heard above the thunder of the world's second-biggest waterfall, but it'll certainly be echoed by those around you as just under 44.4 million gallons of water plummet 13 feet between the borders of Ontario and New York. No matter how you see it—from the decks of the iconic Maid of the Mist, the trails behind them on a guided tour, inside a helicopter, or by leaning over the guardrail at the top—Niagara Falls is one vision you'll want to drink in. As striking as this famous sight is, what's even more remarkable is just how much there is to do only steps away from it. The Shaw Festival Theatre, dedicated to the plays of George Bernard Shaw, offers performances and tours for those seeking enrichment. In January, the Niagara Icewine Festival is a novel event with live music and entertainment for oenophiles. For families, there are theme and water parks, 200 scenic cycling routes, wax museums, and all the rollicking fun of Clifton Hill, where a giant Ferris wheel circles lazily above life-sized dinosaurs and 300 interactive games. It's always haunted house season in "Fun by the Falls," and picturesque Niagara-on-the-Lake claims to have ghosts of its own amid the historic buildings. Queenston Heights is another rustic stopover as you make your way into the 90-plus award-winning vineyards that surround this destination's casinos, outdoor trails, and golf courses, proving that everything about Niagara Falls is bigger—and better—than you ever even imagined. 0 1/2 miles 0 1/2 km 420 102 100 108 59 51 43 104 104 57 R a i n bow Blvd. Rainbow Blvd. American Falls Bridal Veil Falls Goat Island Niagara Falls State Park Victoria Park Fairview Cemetery Niagara Glen View Park Horseshoe Falls N IAGARA FALLS (NY) N IAGARA FALLS (Ont.)
