Review & FAQ:

The Iguazu River is the physical border between Brazil and Argentina, and given that the falls are part of both countries’ territory, it is impressive to note that both Brazil and Argentina have declared the Iguazu Falls as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are many bridges, walkways, and viewing platforms built around the 275 individual waterfalls that make up the Iguazu Falls, giving tourists and locals alike an opportunity to view the spectacle in many unique ways. Visiting the falls in December is a special treat because the rainy season brings more water to the Iguazu River, making the falls even more spectacular.
