Puerto Iguazú
At the end of the road in Argentina, Puerto Iguazú sits at the confluence of the Ríos Paraná and Iguazú and looks across to Brazil and Paraguay. Everyone is here to see the falls or to make a buck out of them, so there are hotels on almost every street. The city is quiet and has good transportation connections; there are also many excellent places to eat.
