Iguazu – Brazilian Side
The Iguazu Falls straddle the border between Brazil and Argentina, a horseshoe of some 275 individual cascades that make Niagara look modest by comparison. The Brazilian side gives the wider panoramic view across the falls, while the Argentine side gets visitors closer to the water itself, including the thunderous Devil’s Throat, so most itineraries cover both. Surrounding rainforest, home to toucans and coatis, adds a further layer to what is already one of South America’s most dramatic natural sights.
