Millions of tons of water fall from the cliff where the Niagara Riverrushes from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario; deafening roar can be heard for manykilometers around.
A cloudof spray raised high in the air where the Niagara River is roaring and foamingin the boiler at the foot of the waterfall. This famous waterfall consists oftwo parts: the American and Horseshoe Falls. Between them is Goat Island - anisland covered with trees in the middle of the river.
Betterknown, perhaps, Horseshoe Falls, which forms an arc length of 792 m, with theCanadian side of the border. The road running along the river, allows us toconsider the vicinity, water, smooth surface that resembles a dark green glass,falling down a cliff, turns into white foam.
AmericanFalls is less and forms a straight line length of about 300 m. At the foot ofthe American Falls are fragments of rock, as opposed to the bare cliffHorseshoe Falls. The height of the two waterfalls about 50 m.
NiagaraFalls there are only about 10,000 years - a relatively short period in thegeological term. When the last ice age ended, massive glaciers retreating,leaving behind the Great Lakes. Due to the nature of the river system waterflows out of Lake Erie at 56 km in the Niagara River lying 100 m. Below LakeOntario. From Lake Ontario flows, in turn, the river St. Lawrence.
Above thefalls the river bed runs through the hard dolomite, under which, however, aresofter rock - slate and sandstone. Initially the river crashes down a cliffabout 11 km. north of the present location of the waterfall, but as fast duringeroded the softer underlying rocks, dolomite collapses. Step-by-step waterfallreceded, leaving behind a deep gorge, and today is far from the place where wasborn 10,000 years ago. Falls recede by about 1 m. Per year, and is now at 305m. Upstream of the place where the French explorer Louis Ennepe saw it back in1678. However, there is Goat Island River divided in half; moreover, at leasthalf the water Niagara reserved for electricity production - all this meansthat the waterfall is now much more stable than it was in the past.
With bridges and parking lots on both sides of the river abeautiful view; One of the most popular bridges - the Rainbow Bridge (Rainbow),named because of the rainbow, playing in the spray of a waterfall. The trueextent and power of Niagaras most clearly appear from the boats dare go intothe rushing water at the foot of the waterfall.
