This Fine Art America puzzle by Ruth Hager measures 18 X 24 inches and includes 500 pieces. It is made from premium 0.2 inch thick paper and includes a semi-gloss coating on the top surface.
The falls are located on the border of Brazil and Argentina. Our group visited both sides by walking the boardwalks and took a boat ride on the Iguazu River near the falls. We stayed two days in the area.
"The semicircular waterfall at the heart of this site is some 80 m high and 2,700 m in diameter and is situated on a basaltic line spanning the border between Argentina and Brazil. Made up of many cascades producing vast sprays of water, it is one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the world. The surrounding subtropical rainforest has over 2,000 species of vascular plants and is home to the typical wildlife of the region: tapirs, giant anteaters, howler monkeys, ocelots, jaguars and caymans.
It was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1984." (
