Garganta del Diablo (Puerto Iguazu, Argentina)

It literally means the throat of the devil in Portuguese. It is the most well-known section of Iguazu falls in Argentina. Its water is flowing from three distinct sides, which makes it exceptionally distinctive. In the Argentinean side, it's likely to bring a pathway which goes directly over the region and makes a challenging spot to have a picture. The catwalk is a very wet experience where you'll be in a constant barrage of water spray and your garments will wind up drenched. You'll also have to constantly protect your expensive camera from having its electronics fried by liquid - I didn't have a very expensive camera on this trip so I braved it and was able to set up my tripod on the platform to snap a few frames.

Have you been to Iguazu Falls?

Oh you are lucky to catch rainbow in your camera at Garganta del Diablo. Did you was at Brazilian side of this waterfall? And did you was at dawn of waterfall? As I know there are boats goes there.

I didn't go to the Brazillian side :)

Not the best place for surfing...

You'd need a parachute :)

Hmm... That could work! I mean, the throat of the devil does sound like a great venue for extreme sports...

I wouldn't mind going hiking there.

It's an easy stroll on a wooden platform.

Wow, good to know. Might have to get a passport and check it out for myself in the future.

A waterfall cannot be silent, just as the wisdom! When they speak, the voice of power speaks. I think waterfalls are amazing and this one perfect. It's so beautiful and big.

If it's that poetic then yeah!
