Iguazu Falls – Water, Water Everywhere!

This is going to be short on text because (1) I am very far behind due to some technology issues of having been at high altitude and not using gadgets, and (2) the photos speak for themselves. Iguazu Falls was named one of the New Seven Natural Wonders of the World – and for good reason. The Falls (or cataratas in Spanish) are absolutely astounding.

One side of the Falls belongs to Argentina and the other to Brazil (with Paraguay also very close by). If you visit, you must see both sides of the Falls. There are many viewing places on the Argentina side, all of which get you very close to the Falls. At the top is La Garganta del Diablo, or Devil’s Throat, which looks like a huge gash opened in the earth, with water thundering down into it from every direction. The Brazil side affords more panoramic views, as well as some close-up views as well.

We visited the Falls three separate times and were absolutely stunned by what Mother Nature created. This is an absolute must-see. Enjoy.

  1. The falls are just beautiful. Were you in the little boat down there? How does this compare to Niagara Falls here in the US?? I suppose there is no comparison. There is just so MUCH WATER. Hugs.

  2. Amazing pictures.. the falls look breathtaking!! A sight to cherish for a life time I guess.
