Iguazu or the Iguassu Falls are located on the borders of Brazil and Argentina. The Falls was discovered in 1541 by the Spanish conquistador Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca and rediscovered by Boselli in the 19th century. The Falls is divided into two parts and both of them are named after Vaca and Boselli. It has a total of 275 falls, some of them ranging to 84 meters.

A legend has been going around regarding the formation of Iguazu Falls. Once upon a time, there was an aborigine woman named Naipi whom a god wanted to marry. But the women loved a mortal named Taroba. The god was infuriated and in rage, cut the river into two so that the lovers would die. Locals say this lead to the Iguazu Falls.

Iguazu holds the 9th position in the list of top wonder. The Falls offer a marvelous and panoramic view of the nature's bounty. The Devil's Throat forms the "world's mightiest single water fall". The place can be reached either from Buenos Aires or Rio de Janeiro. It is better to see the water fall from both sides of Brazil and Argentina. There are several walkways to get a better view of the waterfalls. Rock climbing is a major attraction of this place apart from water sports.

The best time to visit the waterfalls is the rainy season (December to February) and the dry season (April to July). Make sure you check out the weather and geological details because sometimes for a week or more, the Falls get completely dried up. But of course, it happens in decades.

In 1984 and 1986, the UNESCO deemed it as a World Heritage Site. Iguazu Falls has often been compared to the Victoria Falls and the Niagara Falls, but they are mighty in their own way. You all are welcome to visit this beautiful location
