Niagara Falls is known as the "wonder of the world". It is located at the junction of Ontario, Canada and New York State, USA.

It is a large waterfall on the Niagara River in northeastern North America and one of the most famous wonders on the American continent.
Niagara Falls was discovered by a French missionary named Louis Hennepin when he came here to preach in 1678; later in 1625, the European explorer Lément called it "Niagara". But it was Jerome Bonaparte, the brother of French Emperor Napoleon, who really made this waterfall famous. At that time, Jerome and his bride traveled thousands of miles from New Orleans by carriage to Niagara Falls for their honeymoon. After returning to Europe, he widely promoted the beauty of this place among the royal family, and thus the trend of going to Niagara for honeymoon emerged in Europe.
