Iguazu
Falls
(from the Tupi/Guarani words: "Big Water"),
are the waterfalls of the Iguazu
River on the border of Brazilian
state Paran 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.
