Niagara Falls during winter.
Frozen Niagara Falls Or Narnia?
Niagara Falls is a magnificent place to visit all throughout the year. However during winter, exceptionally severely cold winters like North America is currently experiencing, they are indeed a breathtaking sight.
While the agonizing temperatures have caused chaos in some areas and affected the New Year’s plans of millions, one upside to the big chill is the raw beauty of nature. Many areas of the falls have become frozen, forming massive, elaborately shaped ice formations dangling precariously on the rocks, giving the impression of a Narnia-like winter fantasy land.
Niagara Falls is the collective name for three waterfalls.
