A fi rst view will take your breath away and make a permanent impression, a reminder of the awesome power of Nature and of our place in the grand scheme of things. It is something you never forget. From the wild waters of the Falls to the rolling beauty of wine country, the Niagara Region is a testament to natural majesty, and a banquet for all of the senses. And for the mind? Niagara's history, theatres, visual arts and the new opportuni- ties for meditation take care of that. Niagara has you covered, head to toe. CHOOSE YOUR VIEW OF THE FALLS For visual impact, nothing beats the Falls, no matter what angle from which you view them. The most famous way to get an intimate look at this wonder is on a Hornblower cruise, which will take you right up to the base of Horseshoe Falls ( www.niagaracruises.com). For a diff erent view, hover above the spray in one of Niagara Helicopters' fl ights, getting a bird's-eye look at the area. Their new fl eet of whirlybirds provides the added comfort of air conditioning, lower noise levels and unrivalled safety ( www.niagara helicopters.com). Want a more sybaritic way to enjoy the Falls?
