Iguazu Falls
Argentina / Brazil
"Thundering Curtains of Water on the Jungle Border"
Iguazu (Iguaçu) is one of the planet's great waterfall systems: dozens of drops pour into a jungle gorge shared by Argentina and Brazil. The Argentine side offers boardwalks into the Devil's Throat; the Brazilian side gives the wide panoramic view. Puerto Iguazú and Foz do Iguaçu are the gateway towns. A full day on each side is ideal, with optional boat rides under the spray. Bring rain ponchos and expect to get wet.
