Iguazú Falls, Argentina
Switching back to Iguazú Falls, we're on the other side of the border now. The river straddles the Brazil-Argentina border, and the falls are a national park in both countries. Both sides sport hotels and tours, although the Brazilian side is a bit better developed, the Argentinean side is a little less traveled. If you want to go to the top of the falls, you must go to the Argentine side (although you can get close in Brazil). As you walk out on the catwalk, this is some of the forest near the top of the falls. This is on an island in the river before you go over the falls. You might have noticed that the spelling of Iguazú changed- it is different in Spanish (Argentina) than Portuguese (Brazil).
