NIAGARA’S WINTER SCENERY IS SPECTACULAR

One of the nice things about the extremely cold weather we’ve been experiencing is that’s Niagara’s winter scenery is now breathtaking and the best it’s been in years. The cold wind combined with the spray from the falls has created exquisite works of art, which seem to differ day by day.

William Barham in 1870 described a cold winter at Niagara this way, “in winter it is inimitable and indescribably beautiful. It is a sight of which is worth a journey of thousands of miles.”

It’s still the same in 2011.

Bundle up with lots of layered clothing and head to the falls with your camera to capture some magnificent winter photography. You won’t be disappointed.

Juana
are the falls frozen now, or next week? We've been there only during summer and would like to see them frozen or with snow. thanks

George Bailey
Juana, The falls do not freeze but there is an ice formation below the falls callesd, an Ice-Bridge. It's a formation of ice from one side of the river to the other side. It is still here until the weather starts to warm up.It's Spectacular!!!

Chantra
What is there to do around Oct 28-30 @ Niagara falls? How is the weather, because I am coming from Chicago?

George Bailey
Chantra, I can't predict the weather,but chances are it will be a bit cool(no snow). Some leaves should still be wearing their autumn colours. Check the Niagara Falls Tourism site for activities at this time.
