Located in Misiones Province in the Northeastern tip of Argentina and bordering the Brazilian state of Parana to the north, Iguazú National Park, jointly with its sister park Iguaçu in Brazil, is among the world’s visually and acoustically most stunning natural sites for its massive waterfalls. It was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1984. Across a width of almost three kilometres the Iguazú or Iguaçu River, drops vertically some 80 meters in a series of cataracts. The river, aptly named after the indigenous term for “great water” forms a large bend in the shape of a horseshoe in the heart of the two parks and constitutes the international border between Argentina and Brazil before it flows into the mighty Parana River less than 25 kilometres downriver from the park.
Good shot Ravi and a great place. It was recently voted as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.

This is a wonderful shot of a magnificent place that I wasn’t aware of at all.
Thanks for reblogging. More photos to come.
When we were there it had rained the week before, the water was brown and flow was 4X normal. The catwalks were under a constant rain effect because the falls were literally thundering. Awesome. Like your photo of it!
Vijay, I can imagine the effect with the 4x waterflow as we wre impressed with the flow that we saw. Will be posting more views of these amazing falls.
