Niagara Falls has been a tourism centre in Ontario since the 19th century. The city follows the Canadian bank of the Niagara River, where water flows from Lake Erie toward Lake Ontario and drops over Horseshoe Falls on the international border with the United States. The Niagara Parks system maintains a long riverside corridor, while boats from the Canadian side travel close to the base of the cataract. The river has also supplied hydroelectric power for more than a century, helping shape the region’s development. Niagara Falls lies near Ontario’s Niagara wine country and the Niagara Escarpment.

Toronto, Ontario’s largest city, is a major cultural and economic centre, while Algonquin Provincial Park, founded in 1893, represents a long tradition of protected wilderness.
