Salam , readers . Today , I write a entry about a place which is Iguazu Falls . Seriously , before this I even don't know this place . But , when our English teacher , Sir Rahim . He want we to write about 7 wonders of nature in the world . But it almost 3 weeks ago .


(Scenery of The Iguazu  Falls , Argentina)

You can see the picture of The Iguazu Falls located at Argentina . I want to share a little bit of it geography . 
Iguazu Falls is located where the Iguazu tumbles over the edge of the Parana Plateau , 23 kilometers (14mi) upriver from the Iguazu's confluence with the Parana River . Numerous islands along the 2.7 kilometer (1.7 mi) long edge divide the falls into numerous separate waterfalls and cataracts , varying between 60 metres (200 ft) and 82 metres (269 ft) high . The number of these smaller waterfalls fluctuates from 150 to 300 , depending on the water level . About half of the river's flow falls into a long and narrow chasm called Devil's Throat . The Devil's Throat is U - shaped , 82 meter high , 150 meter wide and 700 meter long . Place names have been given also to many other smaller falls , such as San Martin Falls , Bossetti Falls and many others . About 900 meters of the 2.7 kilometer length does not have water flowing over it . The edge of the basalt cap recedes by 3 mm (0.1 in) per year . The water of the lower Iguazu collects in a canyon that drains in the Parana River , a short distance downstream from the Itaipu Dam . The junction of the water flows marks the border between Brazil , Argentina and Paraguay . The Iguazu River where the borders of all three countries can be seen , a popular tourist attraction for visitors to the three cities .
