Niagara-A Once in a Lifetime Experience!!

There are so many things and places that etch permanently in our minds and hearts.One such marvelous place was the "Majestic Niagara".The beauty of Niagara is just the one of it's kind and there can't be anything synonymous to it.


American and Bridal Veil Falls
It was a short weekend trip to Niagara from the west to east coast of US and the travel from one coast of the vast country to another was crazy and tiring.The very sight of the wondrous Niagara made us completely forget the tiredness.No sooner do we enter the state park from the US of A side, did we see just the Niagara river flowing.Later did we realize that the same river just flows down the falls just next to us with great force as it becomes the American Falls.Next to American Falls is what we see the famous Bridal Veil Falls which is synonymous to the Veil of a Bride.It is a small fall, but a sight that captures our heart.



Horseshoe Falls

During the course of stroll while seeing this nature's beauty do we get to see the marvelous Rainbow bridge which connects US to Canada.The bridge is itself one of it's kind.There is always a Rainbow seen when travelled across the Bridge.Then further down do we get into the just amazing experience of the trip-The Maid of the Mist. The Ferry takes us across and near all the falls and when we reach the HorseShoe Falls, no words can appreciate the nature's very own beauty.The one of its own kind "Horseshoe Falls" comes down with great force and the mist is completely covered.With the ferry just a few meters away, water just falls over us giving us the real feeling of being a part of the Nature's beauty.


I did recall another amazing Jog Falls back home near Sagar of ShimogaDistrict,Karnataka, but the experience that we have in Niagara is something different than what we get in Jog.There are four different falls named Raja,Rani,Rocket and Rorer which falls from a very great height when compared to Niagara. But each fall of Niagara is so continuous and the breadth is more when compared to Jog Falls.

A lot of pictures were captured and the view of all the three falls were done from multiple heights and places and every vista point was a treat to the eye and heart.

PS: Please note that I have not compared any falls and this is just my view of the Falls as I have seen both the falls.
