The abundance of greenery adds to the pleasant atmosphere. This place is a must-visit for an unforgettable experience of the beauty and power of

Niagara Falls is the world's largest waterfall, and its water flow is one of the best in the world, so much water, where will it end up? The answer is the Niagara Whirlpool. This place is not particularly far from the Great Falls. The drive is about 20 minutes. There is a Whirlpool Park in the United States and Liya Gara Park in Canada. Both sides have different facilities to watch the Great Whirlpool. Canada is the air cable car, overlooking the entire vortex, in the United States is a fast drifting boat, sitting on a boat worth more than $1 million, all the way to the center of Niagara vortex, but the fare is good, Canada will be a little more cost-effective, It is about 13 yuan per person, and it costs more than 60 yuan per person to do a fast boat in the United States. In fact, you can see it in Whirlpool Park. Whirlpool Park is a state park in the United States, where you can overlook the entire Whirlpool. The Niagara vortex formed about 4,200 years ago at the end of the Wisconsin Glacier (Wisconsinan glaciation). The large amount of water generated by the melting of the glacier flows north along the Niagara Canyon formed by geological fractures. The rapid current carries a large amount of rock and sediment in the canyon, and flows rapidly to St. David Canyon (Saint David''s Buried Gorge ), which intersects almost vertically with Niagara Canyon. The current at 30 feet (about 9 meters) per second suddenly changes direction, the huge flow of energy violently hit the rock walls on both sides, and after a long period of unremitting impact and erosion, nature finally created a huge, Like the green pearl of the beautiful Niagara whirlpool.

If you like Art Deco, definitely worth going from a high-rise or political perspective. Especially free (noon but need a ticket check) to see what metal is underneath the seat in the Parliament hall. The only downside is the lack of female MPs.

It is conveniently located in Elmwood. You will find this museum with a great collection of artworks. Everyone can find what they like. I live in Buffalo so I can go anytime and have the opportunity to see a special exhibition. The first Friday is free and it is great!

An unexpected highlight of the trip to the east of the United States, the only place that made me feel like I was in Europe. It was early in the morning and the forest was stained with red morning glow. The mist is shrouded in the ancient fortress, and there is a feeling of crossing hundreds of years when you walk in. Although the fortress is small, it is exquisite. The place where the soldiers live completely restores the lifestyle of the year, and the uniform hanging by the bedside, as if the owner will come back in a while. The cannon outside the door vicissitudes, pointed to the other side of the sea, and soldiers in ancient uniforms patrolled the distance with guns.
