Iguazu Falls

Iguazu National Park is undoubtedly one of the most imposing natural attractions in Argentina, it is situated both in Argetina and Brazil. if you like to see it on the Brazilian side, you will pay the reprocity fee and for any additional tours. Either way, it is a must see!!










Taller than Niagara Falls, twice as wide with 275 cascades spread in a horsehoe shape over nearly two miles of the Iguazu River. Iguazú Falls are the result of a volcanic eruption which left yet another large crack in the earth. During the rainy season of November - March, the rate of flow of water going over the falls may reach 450,000 cubic feet (12,750 cubic m) per second.

You can take tours or sight see on your own. You will cover a lot of ground, so make sure you put your most comfortable shoes on because you will be walking up in down stairs, and some areas have steep hills.

I road this boat right into the cascading waterfall and got complete drenched. I recommend bathing suits and flip fops. Once you have finished and changed into dry clothes, you will then have to hike up a steep rocky stair case back up to the hiking path.

In Iguazu National Park there are plenty of activities. Outside of the park there are lush jungles in which I visited "The Guarani Tribe." These are the natives who live in the villages in the jungle. I had an opportunity to horseback right through Iguazu jungle and discovered that it should be respected because of all the different species of plant life, insects, and animals. In the jungle, right at my finger tips was an abundance of food, medicine, tools for survival, all for free. On the hand, The Jungle had poisonous plants, insects, and food that would make you very ill or kill you. On this excursion you have the option of taking an hour or two hour  horseback ride. I took the two horseback ride, and highly recommend it. The weather is cool in during this part of the season, and I did not need insect repelent. Beware of hairy catipillars, they are poisonous to both predators and humans.

Learn how to survive in  the jungle

Simplicity at best..the Guarani people using the land, they allow the shell of a fruit to dry out and they use it to brush their hair, as demonstrated in clip below. When they want food, they set traps and feed their families. When they want tools to help build or fix things they get it from the jungle.
