Gorgeous views of Iguazu Falls!

Iguazu Falls (from the Tupi/Guarani words: "Big Water"), are the waterfalls of the Iguazu River on the border of Brazilian state Paraná and Argentine province Misiones. Below its confluence with the San Antonio River, the Iguazu River forms the boundary between Argentina and Brazil. They are considered the most beautiful falls in the world, at a height of over 80 meters (269 feet) and a width of 2.7 km (1.7 miles).
On November 11 of 2011, Iguazu Falls was announced as one of the seven winners of the New Seven Wonders of Nature by the New Seven Wonders of the World Foundation. We wholeheartedly agree with this decision; this is a place of green magic, of water, rainbows and stunning beauty.

Iguazu has both a Brazilian and Argentinian sides. The waterfalls are shared by national parks on both these countries, with both parks being UNESCO world heritage sites. The Brazilian side may have a slight edge, as there is a beautiful walkway that travellers can take along the canyon.
