Thousand Islands. Canada and the United States each have a part, the United States belongs to New York State, and Canada belongs to Ontario. The name of Thousand islands comes from the fact that it consists of thousands of islands, and there are about 1865 small islands. There are large and small, and some islands have houses built on them. Here is a summer retreat for some owners. Whether it is in the United States or Canada, there are cruise ships that can take a tour of the entire Thousand islands. And we chose to sign up for a one-hour cruise from Canada.

For those trips that exceed 1 hour, some include the cost of visiting the island. Just think about the time and whether you want to visit. We did not visit the island and gave up directly. The most famous Bolt Castle (Heart Island) seems to be more convenient to enter from the United States, so there is no need to go through customs. There is also the shortest cross-border bridge in the world, the Zavicam Bridge (connecting the United States and Canada).

In summer, you can see many boats on Thousand islands. These people come here for vacation and leisure. Seeing that they have their own island is still a bit envious. These small islands need to use boats as transportation, and electricity should rely on generators. But they don't live here all the time, so I guess it doesn't matter! After all, I don't understand their world~~

However, some small islands seem to be partially submerged at high tide. Repair and maintenance costs must be very expensive. Even if it is a small house on an island, it is estimated that it is difficult for ordinary people to afford it.

The 1-hour trip is said to be fast or not. In fact, apart from a few major well-known attractions, you will be very excited when passing by. It starts to get bored in about half an hour and there won't be much of a gap. Because the introduction is actually the main locations, other small islands or houses have no special features and will be introduced all the time. The rest is to relax and enjoy the boat ride, plus the summer heat is not good.

But is it worth the trip, you say? Still quite worth it. On the one hand, in addition to knowing some history, you can also see another attitude and idea of ​​the local people towards life. This is a very different atmosphere from Asian countries. Their adjustment to life is worth learning. It's not too far from Toronto or Ottawa, and it's a good experience to visit at least once.
