#4 It left Oscar Wilde unimpressed

While a lot of people wish to be able to visit Niagara Falls and admire its grandeur, not everyone is impressed by the massive fall. Oscar Wilde is just one of the famous figures that went to visit the falls, and, unlike others, the Irish writer is actually known to have said that instead of being impressive, it was disappointing!

For people who are fans of the writer, this is just normal given how he acted, but for others, the fact that he was unimpressed was shocking. This is also probably why guides fail to mention him as someone who talked about the waterfall. And when you look at what he had to say about it and the fact that it was a honeymoon destination, you can see why!

Yet, if you do not want to end up with a wet surprise if you go hiking, make sure your shoes are appropriate for the event! Here is our recommendation!
