Niagara is three waterfalls on the Canada–United States border, with the 57-metre Horseshoe Falls carrying most of the flow and best seen from the Canadian side. Boats run to the base of the falls, and tunnels behind the sheet of water reach observation portals. The surrounding strip is heavily commercialised; the falls themselves are not.
