Today, we headed to the Parque Nacional do Iguaçu to visit the famous Iguazu Falls! We took a local bus to get there, and it was only around 20 minutes from the bus station near our hostel (at the city center). The Iguazú Falls , also spelled as Iguassu Falls or Iguaçu Falls, are one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World and also a UNESCO World Heritage Site . As mentioned the other day, Iguazu from the Guarani words " y " meaning water and " ûasú " meaning big (and it certainly lives up to its name). We paid the entrance fee of R$49 and also bought tickets to the Macuco Safari (R$170) which a friend of Caio told me we had to do.
