Iguazu Falls

An impressive trip to Argentina's far northwestern region of Misiones will lead you to one of the country's most famous sights, one of the world's seven natural wonders: Iguazu Falls. Iguazu Falls, with its 275 waterfalls and a width of 2.7 kilometers, is regarded as one of the world's most captivating sites, drawing visitors from all over the world to see and experience the cascades firsthand.

Iguazu Falls plays an important role in the political and geographical structure of South America, with its name derived from the Guarani word for "big water." Located on the border splitting the Argentina province of Misiones and the Brazilian state of Parana, Iguazu Falls is surrounded by South American rainforests and the noise of wildlife that calls the cascades home.
