This great waterfall is the legendary Niagara Falls, located on the border of the United States and Canada. As the the honeymoon capital of the world, Niagara Falls attracts thousands of tourists each year. The geology of a waterfall causes its formation. Its parent material has areas which are more easily eroded and form the cascades of a waterfall. For more on waterfalls, take a look at our Geology of a Waterfall.
