ღ♥˚Niagara Falls˚♥ღ


Niagara Falls State Park is the oldest state park in the US, established in 1885 as the Niagara Reservation, the first of several such reservations that eventually became the cornerstones to the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation.
3,160 tons of water flows over Niagara Falls every second. This accounts for 75,750 gallons of water per second over the American and Bridal Veil Falls and 681,750 gallons per second over the Horseshoe Falls.
Four of the five Great Lakes drain into the Niagara River, Superior, Michigan, Huron and Erie, before emptying into Lake Ontario. These five Great Lakes make up almost one-fifth of the world’s fresh water supply.
The water falls at 32 feet per second over the falls, hitting the base of the falls with 280 tons of force at the American and Bridal Veil Falls and 2,509 tons of force at the Horseshoe Falls.
The 4 million kilowatts plus of electricity produced by 
Niagara Falls is shared by the United States and Canada.
