Iguazu Fall

Iguazu Fall

Iguazú Falls is the Spanish name for this enormous waterfall. Iguazú river is born in Paraná state in Brazil, After traveling 1,200 km. on a plateau it reaches a fault forming a crack in the interleaved layers of sandstone and basalt where the river runs smooth until it reaches a series of faults, and suddenly an 80 m canyon when river water goes into the faults where the water produces a thundering sound and then drains into the Parana river.

This location where the river goes down into the fault and produces a thundering sound is called Iguazu Fall
