Understand

The Niagara Region is home to some of the best farmland in Canada. Except for the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia, it is the only place in Canada where fruit such as peaches, cherries and grapes can be grown. This microclimate is due to the Niagara Escarpment which runs through South-Western Ontario all the way up to Tobermory. However, the (relatively) balmy climate also is attractive for human settlement, and farmland has been devoured by urban sprawl over several decades. Tourism is a large part of the economy, since Niagara Falls attracts visitors from all over the world.

See

• The Niagara Falls, for which the region is named.
• There are several historical sites from the war of 1812 scattered around the region, since the region borders the United States and much of the fighting took place here. They include Fort George, Fort Erie, Laura Secord's house, and Queenston Heights.
• Queenston Heights is the location of the famous Battle for Queenston Heights. At Queenston Heights there is a tea room and a humongous monument to General Brock who died gloriously in the Battle of Queenston Heights. There is a small plaque for General Sheaffe, who actually won the battle. And a statue for General Brock's horse.
• There are many wineries in the area that like to give tours.
