I would like to visit Argentina because in that country is my magic place. My magic
place is the Iguazu Falls
The Iguazu Falls are a set of waterfalls that are located on the Iguaz River, on
the border between the Argentine province of Misiones and the Brazilian state
of Paran
Besides being one of the 7 wonders of the world, the Iguazu Falls also have one of the
most exciting legends. Legend has it that Boi used to live in the water, a monstrous
serpent of impressive dimensions that fed on humans. Every year the Guarani tribe
had to give Boi a young woman in the form of an offering, which meant each year a
female sacrifice of some young woman of the tribe. Everything changed with the arrival
of a brave young man named Tarob, who fell in love with the aboriginal girl who was
to be the offering of that year and decided to escape with her in a canoe through the
waters of the Falls. Boi learned of this and transformed the young man into the trees
that can be seen today in the Falls and the long hairs of the young woman in the fall of
the water. Despite the attempt of Boi to separate the love of the young, during the day
a beautiful rainbow crosses the Falls and unites the two lovers again.
