TRAVEL GUIDE TO CANADA f rom the foaming fury of the Falls to the satisfying swirl of Ontario wine in a crystal glass, Niagara is the place to splash out on beautiful sights, bountiful cuisine and exhilarating river adventures. In all seasons, the area draws visitors to adventures centred around this world-famous site, and to the sybaritic pleasures of Niagara Peninsula wine country. The variety of attractions makes Niagara highly visitor-friendly. Families can fi nd both education and fun at the Bird Kingdom or the Butterfl y Conservatory, and then kick back with outrageous adventures in the midway-style craziness of Clifton Hill. Couples fi nd romance in decadent suites high above the waters, connoisseurs get to sample world-class wines, historians can trace the early days of Canadian confederation and nature- lovers can hike, bike or climb the escarp- ment. For the cultural tourist, there are excellent galleries and theatrical perfor- mances. Warm weather visitors see the Falls circled by shades of green-manicured parklands, botanical gardens and tree-lined river pathways. In winter, the trees are abstract sculptures created by coatings of iced spray, with everything shrouded in white. Whatever your predilection, Niagara has you covered, all year long. NIAGARA'S ACCESSIBILITY You'll fi nd transportation to be user-friendly, and inclusive, too, as you tour the Falls. Travelling around the various attractions couldn't be easier. Just park your car and let the integrated tourist transit system, WEGO, take you everywhere you want to go. The Niagara Parks Commission is committed to making all transportation accessible to any- one with disabilities. Check out Accessible Niagara if you have mobility impairment or have questions about accessible travel in the region ( www.accessibleniagara.com). NIAGARA MAKES A SPLASH!
