I also found that it is very advantageous to see the waterfalls on the Canadian side, both waterfalls can be fully seen, and on the American side, to see their native waterfalls, you can only see the silhouette, of course, it is also very beautiful to see up close.

After traveling to eastern Canada for half a month, the first place I wanted to write about was Niagara Falls.I've always regretted that I planned to stay here for one night, it felt too short, I really want to stay a few more days and walk around every day.

So, Niagara Falls will definitely be the place I want to come to.

I only spent a dozen hours in Niagara Falls, but I went to see the falls three times.I am willing to be there in a daze, listening, watching the raging water, running down and floating into the distance.Looking at the waterfall in front of you, feeling the slightest moisture on your face, many moments your mind is actually blank, and there will be a sudden stunned...

It was three o'clock in the afternoon when we first arrived, and it was the first time we saw the waterfall.It was a bit sweltering, so we put our things into the family hotel and walked towards the waterfall without stopping.The first thing we came to was the Rainbow Bridge, which was shaped like a rainbow, with Canada on one side and the United States on the other.The Great Falls is composed of American Waterfall and Horseshoe Falls, as the name suggests, the American side is the American Waterfall, and the Canadian side is the Canadian Falls, also called the Horseshoe Falls.Looking at the Canadian side, the American waterfall has a panoramic view, and where the water vapor flows down, the water vapor floats in front of the waterfall like a thin cloud.Even if I am on this side of the shore, I can feel the coolness floating far away.

We walked slowly along the road, looking at the two waterfalls from different angles, the closer we got to the horseshoe waterfall, the whole of the waterfall became clearer, and a large cloud of water vapor shrouded the waterfall like a fog.The sound of the water becomes louder and louder, and you can hear the majestic feeling, and finally close to the edge of the waterfall flying, very, very close, and you can reach it.

屏住呼吸,忍不住想飞流直下的瞬间是怎样的震撼,怎样的决绝,怎样的一去不回,不可回!

就在这时,突然天空飘起小雨,在阳光里密密地倾泻而下,透过岸边的树枝,眼前是绿树,阳光和小雨。游客们都不去躲雨,泰然自若,悠闲地行走在雨中。只是一个片刻,雨过了,回头就看见了彩虹,挂在了两个瀑布之间。

立刻拍了一张手握瀑布间彩虹的照片,那感觉,是意外惊喜。

The second night to see the waterfall, watching the horseshoe falls over the fireworks. The streets were especially lively, with people coming and going, and we almost went down the same path as we had in the afternoon, but the difference was that the waterfalls we saw were colored, sometimes lilac, sometimes light blue, like a large piece of colored satin floating in the distance. At ten o'clock, clusters of fireworks exploded in the sky in front of the waterfall. One was taller than the other. One was brilliant red, the other was bright gold and silver. Different flowers were dancing in the sky. We found a great place to watch fireworks, upstairs from the zip line. All fireworks are seen clearly, find the feeling of childhood fireworks, the night of those flying colors, such as sprites in the sky jump.

次日早晨第三次去看瀑布,六点左右出门,目的地是穿过彩虹桥,去美国那边看瀑布!我在网上查了,说是海关二十四小时都开,随时过关。跟着路标来到彩虹桥步行通道的入口,那地方看着和国内地铁站的入口很相似,人走过去转动铁杆就可以通过。只是试了一下,转不动。周围一个人也没有,不是说好的二十四小时上班吗?旁边的墙上写着过桥费零点五加元,墙边立着三个换零钱的机器。我想网上的信息也许不准确,显然太早了没人上班嘛。

After another half hour of wandering outside, I returned to my place and still no one.I wondered if a lady came out of the gift shop and asked us how we could help.We said we were going to the U.S. and asked why no one was working here?

She smiled and said: Throw two twenty-five cents at the entrance and you can pass, if you don't have change, go to the machine and exchange it.

I then noticed that there was a small coin drop at the entrance. Couldn't it be written: coin drop here, across the bridge!

The kind lady walked up to the machine and watched me change the money and see that we passed before she returned to the store.

过彩虹桥是我此行中最值得记忆,也最忘不了的事,每说一次我都要笑半天,惦记着给加拿大海关提个意见,写一个清楚一点的指示。还有,从美国进来加拿大,为什么不收过桥费?

It's easy to enter the customs, enter the United States, and then return to Canada, are routine to ask a few questions: What to do in the United States? How long will you stay? Where to stay?

When I came to the United States, I found that it was too early, and there were really few people watching the waterfall on both sides, so quiet.With no one in the way, you can enjoy the wonders of nature to your heart's content.

I also found that the Canadian side of the falls is very advantageous, both waterfalls can be fully seen, while the United States, to see their native waterfalls, can only see the silhouette, of course, close-up is also very beautiful. Visitors can put on their raincoats and walk on the boardwalk beside the falls. The water drops will fly on them, and it will be a different feeling. Especially when there are more tourists, those raincoats of different colors, from afar as if flying in the waterfall on the edge of the colorful butterflies.

We walked a long lap on the American side, walking from one side of the waterfall to the other, passing two bridges, a park, and the scenery along the way was elegant.On the other side of the waterfall, you can see the other side of the horseshoe waterfall across the border between the United States and Canada, and if you look closely, you will understand why it is called the horseshoe waterfall, and I feel that the whole waterfall should fall a lot like the horseshoe stepping on the ground.

Many people say that looking at the waterfall on this side of Canada, the scenery is unique; In fact, on the American side, the scenery is also unique.Don't miss it.
