Discover the Niagara Region, Ontario—a spectacular destination where natural wonder meets world-class wine country. Home to the legendary Niagara Falls and Canada's premier wine-producing region, this area combines breathtaking scenery with culinary excellence and charming historic towns.
As you piece together this puzzle, you'll spot the thundering Horseshoe Falls, the largest of the three waterfalls that make up Niagara Falls, where 750,000 gallons of water cascade over the edge every second creating a mesmerizing display of nature's power. You'll also uncover the iconic red Hornblower boat (now Niagara City Cruises) that has carried visitors into the mist at the base of the falls since the 1840s, offering an up-close encounter with the roaring waters.
The puzzle captures the charming town of Niagara-on-the-Lake with its historic Cenotaph clock tower, a war memorial that stands as a focal point in the beautifully preserved 19th-century town known as one of Canada's prettiest communities. You'll find the elegant Prince of Wales Hotel, a Victorian-era landmark that has welcomed guests since 1864 with its distinctive architecture and refined hospitality, and Shaw Cafe & Wine Bar representing the region's vibrant culinary scene. The puzzle showcases Château des Charmes, one of the pioneering estate wineries that helped establish Niagara as a world-class wine region, founded by the Bosc family who brought French winemaking traditions to Ontario.
You'll discover endless rows of vineyard vines stretching across the rolling landscape, clusters of purple grapes ready for harvest that produce award-winning ice wines and varietals, colourful tulips and vibrant flowers that bloom throughout the region's gardens, and the lush greenery that defines this fertile peninsula. The historic buildings of Niagara-on-the-Lake showcase Victorian architecture and heritage charm, while the wine country offers world-class tastings at over 100 wineries.
The Niagara Region is best experienced during the summer and fall months when the weather is warm, vineyards are lush with ripening grapes, and the falls are surrounded by vibrant gardens, though winter brings the magical spectacle of frozen falls and ice wine season. This diverse region represents the perfect blend of natural wonder and refined pleasures, where visitors can experience the power of Niagara Falls on a Hornblower cruise in the morning, tour award-winning wineries like Château des Charmes and taste ice wine in the afternoon, stroll through the charming streets of Niagara-on-the-Lake past the Prince of Wales Hotel and Cenotaph, and enjoy farm-to-table dining at a vineyard restaurant as the sun sets over the vines.
Whether you're drawn to the thundering Horseshoe Falls, the thrilling Hornblower boat experience, the world-class wine country with historic estates like Château des Charmes, the historic charm of Niagara-on-the-Lake with its Prince of Wales Hotel and Cenotaph, or the vibrant gardens and vineyards, the Niagara Region embodies the perfect combination of natural beauty and cultivated elegance in Ontario.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
It's important that you should care for your fine art prints just as you would any delicate and valuable artwork. With proper handling, your prints will remain in pristine condition for many years to come.
Follow these recommendations:
Handling
Natural skin oils or other contaminants can easily transfer to the print. As a preventative measure, we recommend washing your hands before touching the print. Use both hands and support the back of the print when picking it up.
Never attempt to rub the surface of the image with your finger or fingernail as this could scratch the surface of the print.
Exposure to Elements
Keep your print out of direct sunlight. Even the best quality materials are subject to cracking or fading if exposed to prolonged periods of sunlight. Although normal incandescent light bulbs do not present a problem, fluorescent lights do emit harmful ultraviolet rays.
Hang your print away from areas where airborne grime, dust and pollutants such as cigarette smoke can leave a discolouring residue.
Avoid extreme fluctuations in moisture and temperature. Excessive fluctuations between dryness and humidity, or extreme heat and cold can negatively affect the state of your print. Museums keep the temperature generally around 18 degrees Celsius and a relative humidity of 40%. If the humidity is too high, be on the lookout for mold.
Framing
When framing your print use a good quality glass specifically designed for protecting fine art and photographic images. We also recommend using an acid-free archival mat to prevent the print and glass from touching. Like many artworks, an original is sensitive to light. Please ensure that your framer uses UV resistant/museum glass when framing. This glass will protect the artwork against direct or indirect light for years to come.
Storage
To prevent accidents, store your print away from anything that might press against the image surface. Some objects may not seem sharp enough to damage the print, but you'd be surprised at what will cause a scratch, a tear, or a rip.
Do not stack prints on top of each other. Separate them with pieces of acid-free paper to avoid damage.
Wrap your print well if you plan to transport it. Be sure to put a piece of acid-free paper over the front to protect the print. Rough handling can damage the print so pack it securely.
Do not cover your print with plastic for long periods of time. If there is humidity in the air, the mold may begin to grow. Cotton, acid-free sheets are the best for keeping dust away.
Cleaning
The print should be dusted with a clean, soft rag, to prevent dust buildup. Never use cleaning products or water as this may permanently damage the print.
Do not blow on your print as you may inadvertently deposit water droplets that can mark your print.
If using compressed air, apply short bursts while keeping the nozzle at least 12" back from the face of the print.
