Nowadays more than 12 million tourists visit these falls per year to admire its beauty. Even Hollywood has been bowled over by the grandeur of these falls and movies like `Superman II’ and `Niagara’ have been filmed over here.
With the construction of the Whirlpool Bridge, the Lewiston-Queenston Bridge and the Rainbow Bridge more and more people are being able to access Niagara Falls. The best time to visit these falls are during the summer season though there are some people who testify that visiting the same during winter is an amazing experience. When the tourist season is at its peak, floodlights from the Canadian side illuminate the Niagara Falls for several hours after darkness has set in and this enhances the exquisiteness of this beauty of nature.

Together they pour approximately 5 million cubic feet of water per minute. Apart from being a world-renowned tourist spot, the Niagara Falls is used for other useful purposes too.
