New Wonder of Nature


Iguazu Falls is a Wonder of Nature!

On November 11, 2011, the Iguazú Waterfalls were voted as one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World thanks to all who took part. Now it is time to enjoy them.


There is a natural site that does not go unnoticed by tourists who come along to see it and are immediately amazed in such a way that the moment they stand before this awesome sight, it represents a turning point in their lives: that site is the Iguazú Falls. And this natural scene is made up by the Devil's Throat and the winding man-made footbridges that almost touch the water in perfect harmony with Mother Nature.

The Iguazú Waterfalls, whose sovereignty is shared by Argentina and Brazil, have won this global contest in which The 7 Wonders of Nature have been chosen. According to data, over 4,000 people from all over the world tour around this site every day and the number surpasses 10,000 on long weekends or public holidays.

Thanks to the New Seven Wonders of Nature Contest, the entire world has started talking about them. Your vote for the Waterfalls has contributed to that aim.

For Welcome Argentina it is an honor to have added our extensive presence online in order to help spreading this particular contest whose prize was no other than succeeding in making one of the most beautiful sites on the planet and in our country worldwide known and advertised.

Vote Iguazú Falls has been then much more than a slogan. It has been a way of telling the world that one of the wonders of nature lies within our territory, and that it is Argentinian, and that it has all the qualities to get such well-deserved trophy for good.

Can the other nominated wonders be enjoyed both in the daytime and at night? Can they cause awe, fascination, adrenaline, majesty, vulnerability and all the possible sensations expressed by the human body just by staring at them? Can anyone who has visited the Iguazú Waterfalls assert that there is a place comparable to them somewhere else in the world?

The Iguazú Waterfalls were already a wonder for those of us who were lucky enough to visit them. Now, the whole world may understand why. Thank you for helping us to give this place the position they deserve.
