Iguazu Falls - Argentian Side

Iguazu Falls - Argentina Side Iguazú Falls or Iguaçu Falls are waterfalls of the Iguazu River on the border of the Argentine province of Misiones and the Brazilian state of Paraná. Together, they make up the largest waterfall system in the world. The falls divide the river into the upper and lower Iguazu. The Iguazu River rises near the heart of the city of Curitiba.

Named "Great Waters" in the indigenous Tupi-Guarani language, the falls consist of over 275 separate drops spanning almost 3 kilometers. Visitors can experience stunning vistas from both countries, explore the surrounding subtropical rainforests, and even take boat tours to the base of the falls.
