Iguazu National Falls in Argentina hosts over 2 million visitors each year. The attractions include the rain forest, flora, fauna, and more than 270 individual waterfalls that together are referred to as "Iguazu Falls".

There are parks to enjoy the falls on both the Argentina and Brazil shores of the Iguazu River. On the Argentina side, the National Park includes four major hikes, and my favorite was the Upper Circuit Trail which leads thru the forest, full of vines, thick with trees, wildlife, and culminating with a breathtaking walk along the edge of the cliff overlooking the river, the falls and in some places the metal gangway takes visitors over chasms with raging water below. Spectacular and breathtaking! To top it off, it is common to see rainbows in the mist of the falls.
