Surroundings
The Misiones Rainforest or Paraná Rainforest is one of the areas with a largest biodiversity in Argentina. It is part of the Atlantic Woodlands and an eco-zone that spreads from Serra do Mar on the Brazilian coast to the east of Paraguay and almost the whole Province of Misiones.
It is characterized by well defined layers or strata: the herbaceous strata at the rainforest floor, the arboreal strata with plants up to 15 meters high, an intermediate level with ferns and growing trees, the canopy strata or structure of the rainforest with trees up to 30 meters high and the emergent strata with the giants of the rainforest that could reach 45 meters high.
Misiones is divided in two phyto-geographic sections: First, the rainforest itself with the presence of trees like fan palms, palo rosa, laurels, bamboo type trees, among others. Secondly, the pine tree sector in the highest regions, where the dominant species is the Araucaria Angustifolia (Paraná pine).
Puerto Iguazú was a mainstay of Misiones colonization at the beginning of the 20th century. Today, it is one of the most important cities in Misiones. More than 70 thousand people live in this tourist destination, where you can find all kinds of traveler services. Iguazú falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
