36 hours ridding in a bus for six hours of sightseeing doesn’t really seem to add up, does it? How about it’s also Easter Weekend and the place your visiting happens to be one of the most sought after spots for the holidays. Now it really doesn’t add up. Well it might make a little more sense knowing that the ever so hard-earned destination is Iguazu Falls.
With over 250 individual waterfalls, Iguazu Falls National Park divides the Iguazu river between it’s upper and lower regions. Channeling out massive amounts of Amazonian Rainforest water, this huge river splits Argentina from its Brazilian neighbor to the north. What makes these falls so impressive is the sheer width and surface area they cover, in comparison to say the taller yet more slender Niagara Falls. The Falls themselves only make up half the charm of the national park. Unlike Niagara Falls’ location (between Buffalo and Toronto), Iguazu Park is situated in an incredibly beautiful and isolated natural setting. With lush jungle surrounding the walkways and more butterflies flying through the air than one has ever seen, the Park itself is just as fantastic as the waterfalls.
