The Canadian side of Niagara Falls is wonderful. They have very well kept gardens and park grounds. Near there on the Canadian side is Niagara-on-the-Lake. You can find a lovely park on the waterside along with quaint shops just a few blocks away. Living near the US/Canadian border, I go to these places often and find them relaxing. Enjoy your trip!
