Iguazu Falls (Argentina side)

We moved to Iguazu by domestic flight from Buenos Aires Airport.It's sunny here as well.
Before landing at Iguazu Airport, I saw a waterfall-like smoke rising in the jungle on the right, and my expectations grew.
Arrived at Iguazu Airport.The guide for Iguazu was Miguel, who was born in Chile and lives in Brazil, and had been in Hakata for four years.
On the first day of sightseeing in Iguazu, we visited Iguazu Falls from the Argentine side.
We moved to Iguazu National Park and had lunch after entering.
Then took the trolley train from Central Station to Garganda del Diablo Station, the final stop.
After getting off the dolly train, walked about 1km along the bridge promenade and arrived at the devil's throat.A sightseeing helicopter was flying in the sky.

The spectacular view of the Devil's Throat is the biggest attraction of Iguazu Falls, and the power of the large amount of water is more than that of Niagara Falls.
A large amount of water ran down with a roaring sound, the splash of water rose, and the view of the waterfall basin could not be seen at all.
When the sun was shining, a rainbow hung over the waterfall and it was very beautiful.The small drops of water fell like rain, so I got wet as soon as I was holding the camera.The promenade on the Argentine side has been washed away many times in the past.

Returned to the trolley train, then got off at Catalatas station on the way, walked along the promenade and watched the waterfall from the observatory.
It wasn't as powerful as the devil's throat, but we could see the various waterfalls of Iguazu from the observatory.There were also small animals such as Nasua and howler monkeys along the way.

After sightseeing at Iguazu Falls, we returned to Central Station and crossed the border into Brazil by bus.
Since Brazil is a Portuguese-speaking country,the phrase ‘Thank you’ has changed from Glacious to Obligado.
Checked in at Belmond Hotel das Cataratas in Iguazu National Park on the Brazilian side.
Das Cataratas was a very luxurious hotel suitable for the end of trip.At dinner, we celebrated the day before a family member's birthday.
The stars were beautiful, so I got out of the room after dinner and went out to take a picture, but family was worried that I was attacked by a puma because I didn't return for a while.
