The magical scene was captured in a series of breathtaking photographs with Niagara Falls completely transformed into ice, looking like an icy paradise. Due to the heavy flow of 3,160 tons of water, it is nearly impossible for the fall to completely freeze, but over the years the fall has turned into partial frozen wonderland. The water falls here at the rate of 32 feet per second. 



The pictures and videos surfacing on the internet show frozen mist and sheets of ice blanketing parts of the iconic tourist destination at the border of USA and Canada. 



The part of Niagara Falls on the American side has frozen five times so far. Whenever this waterfall accumulated, the flow of water was affected at that time. Steel ice booms were installed here in 1644 to prevent the waterfall from becoming ice.
