BEST TIME TO VISIT
The best time to visit the Niagara Falls runs from mid-May to late September. In midsummer, in July and August, not only the waterfalls are very crowded, but also there may be hot and muggy days, so this period can be excluded if you cannot stand the heat (although the heat can be positive when you approach the waterfalls and get wet from the spray). You can therefore choose May and September; in May and early June, it can still be a little cold, and in any case, you have to take into account the possibility of rain and of temperature swings. In the first half of October, it can be cold, but you can admire the trees taking on their spectacular autumn colors, while in spring, you can see flowers blooming in the nearby botanical garden.

Some more Interesting facts about Niagara Falls The flow over the American Falls was stopped completely for several months in 1969. The idea was to determine the feasibility of removing the large amount of loose rock from the base of the falls to enhance its appearance. In the end the final decision was that the expense would be too great. The word “Niagara” is derived from the Iroquois Indian word “Onguiaahra” meaning “the strait”. 1.      There is an international boundary between the United States and Canada. 2.      Before the invention of film tourists would sketch pictures of the Falls. 3.      The flow was also halted over both falls on March 29th 1848 due to an ice jam in the upper river. 4.      The movies Niagara and Superman were filmed in part at the Falls. 5.      In the past fifteen years two daredevils lost their lives trying to conquer Niagara. 6.  ...

Do the Falls Freeze over in the Winter? The tremendous volume of water never stops flowing. The falling water and mist create ice formations along the banks of the falls and river. This can result in mounds of ice as thick as fifty feet. If the winter is cold for long enough the ice will completely stretch across the river and form what is known as the “ice bridge”. This ice bridge can extend for several miles down river until it reaches the area known as the lower rapids. Until 1912 visitors were allowed to walk out on the ice bridge and view the Falls from below! February 24th of 1888 the local newspaper reported that at least 20,000 people watched or tobogganed on the ice. Shanties selling liquor, photographs and curiosities abounded. On February 4th 1912 the ice bridge broke up and three tourists lives were lost. There can also be a great deal of “mini-icebergs” which flow down the Niagara River from frozen Lake Erie. The flow of ice has been reduced considerably by the yea...
