Niagara Falls to Japan

Niagara Falls is a name given to three huge waterfalls that bestride the Canadian province of Ontario and the US state of New York. The three waterfalls are the Bridal Veil Falls, American Falls and Horseshoe Falls. The Horseshoe Falls lies on the Canadian side, while the American Falls and the Bridal Veil Falls lie on the American side. The Niagara Falls is known both for its natural scenic beauty and for being a valuable source of hydroelectric power. The oldest and of course, one of the best attractions in Niagara Falls is the Maid of the Mist - a thrilling boat cruise that takes people to the bottom of the falls. The Prospect Point Park - offering spectacular views of the American Falls – is a prime attraction on the American side. When tourists arrive from the Canadian side, they are showered with many attractions, such as the Queen Victoria Park that has well-maintained gardens and the decks that offer breathtaking views of both the falls on the American side. There are underground walking trails leading to observation rooms, where visitors get an impression of being in the middle of the falling waters. A trip to the Niagara Falls is simply a must for everyone. To explore this natural wonder in a hassle-free and affordable manner, tourists can avail travel packages from MakeMyTrip.

Japan’s well-preserved culture, with traditions in innate welcoming nature of the people, gift-giving, temple-going and bathing is still strong today, set against backdrops of snow-covered mountains, futuristic cities, ancient temples, islands and forests scattered along a 3,000km archipelago. Highlight of any visit includes the ancient art of the Japanese tea ceremony to sushi etiquette, and from Gion, Kyoto's geisha district, to enlightening walks along the Golden Route, following in the footsteps of samurai warriors. A timeless place where the speed of new technological developments is matched by the longevity of its ancient customs. Get around town in the shinkansen (bullet train). Meditate with monks or learn how to whisk bitter matcha (powdered green tea) into a froth. Tokyo, a huge metropolis offers quirky experiences and amazing food. Kyoto is packed with history, important temples, gorgeous architecture and a charming atmosphere. The stunning Temple of Golden Pavilion in Kyoto with garden setting and the Osaka Castle are must see. Hakone, a peaceful retreat at the footsteps of Mt. Fuji provides a chance to relax in an onsen (hot spring bath) and sleep in a ryokan (a traditional Japanese inn). The country is swathed in natural beauty; ski the powdery slopes of Hokkaido, revel in the springtime beauty of the ‘Sakura’ cherry blossoms or frolic at the sun kissed beaches. Wherever you go, great food is guaranteed. From fresh sushi and sashimi to charcoal fired meats and sizzling sauces, Japan is a joy for gastronomes.
