Designed for Touring: Niagara Falls, Canada
The Niagara area of Canada has been a tourist destination for over two hundred years, and has successfully evolved to address changing expectations by adding additional attractions to the fundamental resource of the Falls themselves. In contrast to its American neighbour, its population continues to grow, due to an ability to attract new residents and create new business opportunities. Today Niagara offers opportunities for almost every type of visitor, including the most enthusiastic ecotourist, the historian, thrill-seeking teens and families simply looking to entertain or divert their small children. As a destination it has survived ongoing change, in part due to government initiatives and stewardship of some of the fundamental resources, combined with the ability of the private sector to exploit them. A short explanatory tour given by a long-term resident will take the visitor to just a few of the many attractions, and will help to demonstrate why Niagara retains its appeal as a place that everyone has to visit – at least once.
