Niagara falls is a geological landmark found on the international border between New York, USA, and Ontario, Canada. It is part of the waterway between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. It's map coordinates are 43° 4′ 48″ N, 79° 4′ 15.6″ W.

=========================================================

Niagara Falls is also the name of two cities, one in Ontario, Canada and one in the USA. They are opposite one another, across the Niagara River at the falls.

There are three falls at Niagara. The Horseshoe Falls is widely known and is by far the largest and most spectacular. The Horseshoe Falls is almost entirely within Canada. The American Falls is the second largest of the falls. The third is much smaller. It is between the other two, and between Luna Island and Goat Island. It is on the US side and is often overlooked. It is called the Bridal Veil Falls.

There are two Niagra Falls. One is in the Southern-Eastern portion of the Canadian province of Ontario and the Other is in the Northern-Western portion of the US state of New York. They are both the same place but there are two sections of the falls. One in Canada and one in America. The name is also used for two townships one in Canada and the other in America. The most commonly seen (on TV) falls in the Canadian falls, also called the Horseshoe falls due to its shape. The American falls is known as the "straight falls" due to its shape. There is also a bit of other info but I am not sure is relevant or not-the falls are divided by Goat Island into the American Falls, 167ft high, and the Canadian, or Horseshoe, Falls, 158ft high.
Niagara Falls is located in two countries (Canada and US), two cities (both named Niagara Falls), a province (Ontario) and a state (New York).
The falls create an international border for the Canadian province Onta

rio and the US Sate New York
They are between the U.S. state of New York and the Canadian province of Ontario.
