Niagara Falls

One of Canada’s most accessible natural wonders, Niagara Falls is a group of three waterfalls at the southern end of Niagara Gorge, spanning the border between the province of Ontario in Canada and the state of New York, USA. The largest of the three is Horseshoe Falls, which straddles the international border of the two countries. The waterfall is truly a breathtaking sight. You can see this famous attraction from different perspectives; a few include the Cave of the Winds tour, The Maid of the Mist and Queen Victoria Park.

If you want to get up close and personal, the Cave of the Winds tour is the one for you. Take a poncho and expect to get soaking wet, as the tour happens on a wooden walkway at the base, looking straight up at the waterfall.

The Maid of the Mist is the most popular tour, giving tourists unforgettable views of Niagara Falls. The boat takes you on a 20-minute tour through the Niagara Gorge, past the American and Bridal Veil Falls, and into the mist coming from the Horseshoe Falls. This opportunity allows you to get a perspective for all three of the waterfalls that make up the natural landmark.

Queen Victoria Park is notorious for its unforgettable backdrop of Niagara Falls through the landscaped trees, bushes, and overflowing flower beds of the gardens; it’s considered the heart of the Niagara Park system.

It was the world’s tallest freestanding structure until 2007 when it was surpassed by the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.

Canadian Museum of Human Rights

In Winnipeg, the Museum of Human Rights has become to city’s state-of-the-art architectural landmark. The museum is known both for its spectacular building design and its unique concept of presenting human rights stories.

Within the museum, it ranges from a 750-year-old footprint intact, designs for a Nazi concentration camp, lights of inclusion that invites visitors of all ages to interact with each other as a reminder that connections between people are necessary to build a strong society, and a display of everyday objects including mobile phones, bottles of water and sneakers.
