Niagara falls

The name "Niagara" is original from the word Iroquesa that means " Thunder of water". The original inhabitants of the region were those of Ongiara, an Iroquesean tribe called the neutral ones for the French Conquerors, who found in them help as mediators of disputes with other tribes. Niagara falls are a small group of big cascades placed in Niagara river to the east of North America, on the border of the United States and Canada. Since they were discovered by the European settlers they have became very popular, not only for its beauty but also for being a source of energy and a challenging environmental project. It is a place of tourism shared by the cities of Niagara Falls (New York) and Niagara Falls( Ontario). It is wonderful to appreciate the beauty and nobility of Niagara Falls, not only for being a potential source of energy but also for the agreeable feeling that the appreciation of its scenery brings with just a photography. Also for being a natural marvel created by God; that not only is admired by its beauty but that has also been taken to produce hydraulic energy.
