Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: This view of the Iguazu Falls was captured from a helicopter in March of 2003. These falls are located on the Brazilian/Argentinian border in Iguazú National Park. The source of the Iguazu River is in the Santa Catarina province of southeastern Brazil. After flowing west-northwest for several hundred km, the Iguazu abruptly drops 80 m (260 ft), forming these picturesque waterfalls. Less than 50 km (30 miles) downstream, the Iguazu empties into the Paraná River. This photo shows the entire width of the Falls (approximately 3 km or 2 miles wide), the second widest waterfall in the world. Iguazu Falls, in Misiones (Argentina).
