This is an amazing place. It´s hands down ten times better than Niagara Falls. Keep in mind that these photos and my experience occured at a seasonal time when the water level was exceptionally low. Despite this, I was still astonished. The staff was wonderful, the park was extremely clean, and well marked. The only downside to this experience was that I was completely alone. Other than the thousands of tourists I didn´even have a Hostel-mate to walk around with. So I did the the next best thing. Put in my headphones and rocked out to music under the sun.
I was fortunate to have amazing weather. There are two sides to the park and I was exploring the Argentinan side as opposed to the Brazilian one. The vegetation was tropical green with flowers blooming and birds chirping. There were "Coatis" or racoon looking ant-eater things that scavanged the grounds looking for discarded food...these little dudes were getting into people´s bags, crawling around their feet, and being shewed off at relentless rates.
The falls were so beautiful. Two main sections but the Devil´s Throat was more like Niagara. The power and sound was unmistakeable. I found myself listening to some good tunes and just staring for hours. These pictures don´t do it justice...
