1. Best view of Iguazú Falls

At the point where Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay meet, and the border between Brazil and Argentina, you’ll find these magical waterfalls.

2. Argentina or Brazil?

Argentina or Brazil? The long-lasting rivalry between the two neighbors makes for competition over who is home to the better view. Well, we say Argentina. For one huge reason—the view at Devil’s Throat. This vantage point from the Argentinean side is undoubtedly the best in the entire park. It’s also the closest view you can get of the Iguazu Falls, without actually being enveloped by the mighty waters. However, you will definitely get sprayed and soaked by waterfall mist so watch out! If this natural wonder of the world wasn’t on your bucket list, it should be now. After you visit Iguazu Falls, the bar will be set high for all other waterfalls. Sorry, Niagara, South America goes bigger.
