Niagara River Crossing.

Less than half a mile separates the United States and Canada at Niagara Falls, where the American Falls and Horseshoe Falls together attract more than 20 million visitors each year.

Recognized as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, Niagara Falls captivates visitors in every season.  Whether viewed in daylight or illuminated beneath the night sky, the view is breathtaking. Beyond its beauty, the falls generate an enormous amount of hydroelectric power on both sides of the border. The flow rate is carefully regulated to optimize energy production, with peak flow occurring during the summer months at an estimated 700,000 gallons per second.

Many agree that this extraordinary volume and power make Niagara Falls worthy of the title “The Eighth Wonder of the World.”
