Niagara is very impressive, but its surroundings are not beautiful.
This was a list of the most beautiful, not the tallest or biggest.
I'd vote for Gullfoss in Iceland or even the Victoria Falls in Scotland, small but beautiful.

Going on the Flight of the Angels over Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe was one of the most spectacular things I have ever done. Amazing stuff.

My friend Mr. Wilde said that Niagara Falls was the American bride's second great disappointment ;-)

They are in Slatterdale near Loch Maree.
Unfortunately we couldn't visit them this year.
The Forestry Commission have closed off the trail because of severe storm damage.
They are having to clear fallen trees.
