Although very much commercialized and touristy, the Iguazu falls are still well worth the detour. They are located on the border between Brazil and Argentina, and can be reached from both sides as well as from Paraguay.

Legend attributes their origin to the anger of a god who lost the girl he loved. When you look down the Gargantaga del Diablo (Devil's throat) you will believe that there is some truth in this story.

Iguazu falls are the second largest in the world after Victoria Falls in Africa. Their height isnt so inspiring as is their length. Their are multiple approaches to the falls, both from above and below. Iguazu falls is formed at the edge of a volcanic flow where the rock suddenly changed hardness and wore away. Whats sad is there was a second even larger falls that was destroyed when the river was dammed.
