#5 Popular attraction even for famous figures

Due to the positioning of the falls, it has always been a popular tourist attraction. Since you can get there from New York City, Ottawa, and Washington, D.C., the number of people visiting the impressive natural wonder has always been quite large. Because these cities are also important and large, famous people and politicians are among the tourists who visit.Since we already talked about a writer, it is only fair to mention the dignitaries and other famous figures that have visited as well.

The most notable examples are British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who visited the falls with his daughter even during the height of the Second World War. And also John Franklin, a British explorer who visited in 1825 and, unlike Oscar Wilde, was thoroughly impressed by Niagara Falls! Unfortunately, the explorer disappeared in the Arctic later in the 1940s.
