Gateway NiagaraOntario Tourism & PhotographyBy John HartigThe Niagara Region is dotted with tourist towns rich in accommodations, restaurants, entertainment and natural scenery. A great spot for tourism and photography! World class Niagara Wine is produced by the unique wineries sprinkled throughout the entire Niagara Peninsula. Niagara Falls and The Niagara Casino are, of course, a central hotspot for tourists. And radiating beyond Niagara Falls, there are a number of pretty little towns which are rich in culture, history and of course, shops. So, there is lots to see, lots to do and lots of places to stay throughout the entire Niagara Region. Check for an itinerary and accommodations through Tourism Niagara and The Niagara Parks Commission.
