07 Frozen Mist and the Falls in Winter

The same mist which casts rainbows and delight during the spring, summer and fall clings to the trees and pretty much everything else around Niagara Falls in the wintertime. It's especially dazzling at night when festive lighting or even just the streetlamps make the trees glow in their icy encasements. Some of the attractions are closed, but the falls flow year-round producing beautiful winter rainbows for visitors who brave the cold -- or enjoy the view from indoor venues such as the Skylon Tower. The visitor's center, casino, aquarium, shopping, and dining are all open on the American side.
