Niagara-on-the-Lake is a picturesque town at the point where the Niagara River flows into Lake Ontario. Set in the spectacular scenery of the Great Lakes near Niagara Falls, the town is the focus of the region’s burgeoning wine industry and the home of the internationally distinguished Shaw Festival. The combination of historic architecture (dating from the 1790s when the settlement was briefly the capital of the colony of Upper Canada) with nature and culture makes the town both a popular bolt-hole from nearby Toronto and a destination for visitors from around the world.
