Iguazu Falls - from both Brazil and Argentina

Brazil - Foz de Iguazu: The Catarates de Iguazu (Falls) can be seen from both the Brazilian and Argentian sides. Which we did. The Rio (River) Iguazu plunges and crashes 80 mtrs in 275 different falls. The Brazilian side gives the grand overview, and a cold shower from one of the walkways that leads out above the water and below some falls. The town itself is nothing special, and the only reason we stayed for 2 nights is because there was rain on the first day and there was another attraction that we wanted to see. This attraction was the Itaipu Hidroelectric Power Plant. It claims to be one of the 7 wonders of the modern world. It provided 75% of the electricity to Paraguay and 25% to Brazil. We went on a free tour which was interesting. It attracts so many visitors from around the world. Probably though because they are already there to see the Falls! Puerto Iguazu - Argentina: The Argentian side of the Falls give you a much closer look. There are more walkways (4kms) over the water, upper and lower walks, there is a tourist train and you get to go up really close to Garganta de Diablo (Devil´s Throat) - the greater of the Falls. There is 55,000 hectares of sub tropical rainforest here and there are actually jaguars. Happy not to have seen them though. This side of the Falls was heaps better (although when the water is high, it does prevents you from seeing as much). We spent 6 hours looking around this day. The town itself is really small, compact and has a nice feel. And we shared our deliciously huge steak left overs with some local dogs, as there was no way we could get through our meals.
