Ready to Get Wet?
A boat carrying numerous people very willing to get soaked on a hot day negotiates right up to the base of one of the estimated 275 falls which make up Iguazu Falls. January in Argentina is mid summer, and the temperature in the park was in the high 90's when we were there. Iguazu is part of a National Park system in both Argentina and Brazil, and is relatively isolated, as opposed to Niagara which is in a more urban setting.
Iguazu Falls was voted one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World in 2011, and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. It has the greatest annual water flow of all the waterfalls in the world, is three times as wide as Niagara and 30% higher. It was the setting for the 1986 movie, "The Mission."
