In fact, both parks - on both sides, have subtropical rain forests that are home to many varieties of rare animal and plant life.

The mist from the huge waterfall that is devil's throat rises to an astounding height of 30 meter (98 feet) and to a distance of 150 meters (492 feet) from the waterfall. So if you don't like getting wet - Get binoculars.

Re: Gorgeous views of Iguazu Falls!
Wikipedia added this piece of info: "The first proposal for a Brazilian national park aimed at providing a pristine environment to ‘future generations,’ just as ‘it had been created by God’ and endowed with ‘all possible preservation, from the beautiful to the sublime, from the picturesque to the awesome’ and ‘an unmatched flora’ located in the ‘magnificent Iguazu waterfalls."

Victoria falls are the only falls larger the Iguazu, but they are not as wide. They split into about 275 falls and islands.
