Iguaçu Falls is the name of both a city and an incredible natural spectacle. The waterfalls are located in Brazil's Parana, near the borders of Argentina and Paraguay. For those seeking natural beauty, the falls and surrounding forests are hard to beat.

Iguaçu Falls stretch for 2.5 miles, plunging 230 feet into the Iguaçu River. The falls may be visited by foot, air and water. There is not one, but 275 interlinking falls that form a horseshoe-shaped torrent of falling water.

The falls sit in a virgin forest protected from development.
