Iguaçu Falls

When asked to identify the world’s greatest waterfalls, many would be hardpressed to name Iguaçu Falls, tucked into the southwestern tip of Brazil’s Paraná state. The Iguaçu River forms the border between Brazil and Argentina here and 18 miles downstream it joins the Paraná River (seventh- largest in the world) to form Brazil’s border with Paraguay.
