mouth of the Iguassu river Explanation: + -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-22 21:35:43 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- o Iguassu river mouth -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-01-22 21:37:23 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The starting point for the excursions is the town of Foz do Iguassu (\"Foz\" means opening or mouth of the river) which on account of the waterfalls has become one of the most visited places in the world. About 8 km North of Foz do Iguassu is the world\'s largest hydroelectric plant, Itaipu, which was built as a joint project by Brazil and Paraguay. Nearby, down in Argentina or in Paraguay, ruins of Jesuitic Missions remind us of the early century of the country, when indian pagan tribes were still owners of their land and the priests wanted to convert them to their God. http://www.contempory.com.br/brazil/iguassu/ |
