The walk across the Rainbow Bridge, connecting Niagara Falls, New York, and Niagara Falls, Ontario, is approximately half a mile (around 800 meters). Walking this distance can vary based on your pace, but on average, it should take about 10-15 minutes. Please note that wait times can be longer due to border crossing procedures, and you should also factor in time for any checks or courses required by border security.

Whether it's better to stay on the Canadian or U.S. side of Niagara Falls largely depends on what you want from your visit.

Many visitors often favor the Canadian side (Niagara Falls, Ontario) for several reasons. First, it offers a more direct view of the falls, especially the impressive Horseshoe Falls. The area is also home to many restaurants and hotels offering rooms with direct views of the falls. Additionally, the Canadian side has a broader range of restaurants, shops, and tourist attractions, such as the Clifton Hill entertainment area and the Niagara Parks system, which includes the Butterfly Conservatory and the Floral Clock.

However, the U.S. side (Niagara Falls, New York) has advantages. It offers a closer and more intimate experience with the falls via the Cave of the Winds tour and the Maid of the Mist boat ride. The U.S. side also has the advantage of Niagara Falls State Park, the oldest state park in the U.S. It offers various viewpoints, hiking trails, and picnic areas. It is also basically less crowded than the Canadian side.

Remember that crossing the border requires a valid passport or equivalent identification for citizens of most countries, so ensure to have those documents ready if you plan to visit both sides.

Therefore, the "better" side to stay on depends on your preferences for views, attractions, and accommodation options.
