Iguazu Falls is the widest waterfall in the world, located in the lower reaches of the Iguazu River on the border between Brazil and Argentina. Waterfalls are located on both sides of the canyon on the border between Argentina and Brazil, and the top of the canyon is the center of the waterfall, where the water flow is the largest and most violent, and is known as the "Devil's Throat". Iguazu Falls is 82 meters high and 4,000 meters wide, with an average flow of 1,751 cubic meters per second and a maximum flow of 12,750 cubic meters per second.
Angel Falls is the highest waterfall in the world, with the Chulon River cascading down from the flat-topped plateau of Mount Auyan-Tepui, 150 meters wide and a total drop of 979 meters (3,122 feet), bounded by a split crystalline rock platform 172 meters from the Chulon Valley, the waterfall is divided into two stages, and the longest waterfall is 807 meters (2,648 feet) high.
The largest waterfall in the world, the popular claim (even some encyclopedias say so) is Niagara Falls, but this is obviously false, because the river in which Niagara Falls is located flows much less than the Congo River (the second largest in the world after the Amazon), and the lower reaches of the Congo River is home to the famous Livingstone Falls, the most downstream of which should obviously be the world's largest waterfall (there are no waterfalls in the middle and lower Amazons).

The largest waterfall in the world, Niagara Falls.
The Niagara River in North America is a river that flows from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario after bringing water from the three major lakes of Superior, Huron and Michigan. The river is only 56 kilometers long, but the valley is narrow and steep, forming a deep fault. To the east of the river is the state of New York in the United States, and to the west of the river is the Canadian province of Ontario, where the Great Falls are located.
The upper reaches of the Niagara River are flat, wide, and gentle. However, not far from the waterfall, the river narrows and the current accelerates, and the water drop suddenly increases to 15 meters. As the terrain undulates, this turbulent current is separated by a "goat island" on the border between Canada and the United States
The most violent stream of water flows into Canada, in the shape of a horseshoe, which is the world-famous Niagara Falls, which is 750 meters wide and has a drop of meters; The weaker stream of water is the American Falls, which has a width of 330 meters and a drop of meters. The waters of these two waterfalls then flow into the lower reaches of the Niagara River with a thunderous force. The Niagara River is shared by Canada and the United States, and the center line of the main channel of the Niagara River is the Canada-US border.
On this peaceful border, there is not a single soldier on either side, and the people of the two countries move freely. The sister cities located on both sides of the Niagara River are called Niagara Falls. Unfortunately, U.S. residents can't see their own waterfall in their home country, and they have to drive across the Rainbow Bridge to Canada to see the stunning view of the Great Falls.
Here, people can either take a yacht to the waterfall and see the world in front of it, or take an elevator through the 72-meter-deep underground tunnel to the foot of the waterfall and listen to the roar of the stormy waves. At night, searchlights equivalent to 4.2 billion candles shine on the waterfall from all directions. In addition, there is also a scene called "Waterfall from the Sky":
On the west bank of the river, there is a tall tower, about 160 meters high, on which is a huge disc hotel that can be turned, every hour rotates for a week, and visitors can overlook the ** road of the waterfall through the glass window.
Niagara Falls is renowned for its unique horticulture, bringing in exotic flowers from around the world, such as tulips from the Netherlands, peonies from China, cherry blossoms from Japan, cacti from Mexico, and countless violets, lilies and sheep's teeth. In the lower reaches of Niagara, not far from the Great Falls, there is a huge flower clock, made of 10,000 different plants, which imitates the flower clock built in Edinburgh, Scotland, but it is three times its size, with a diameter of meters, and the hour and minute hands weigh 225 kilograms, and the second hand is meters long and weighs kilograms, and it strikes the time every quarter of an hour.
Niagara Falls is also home to a number of museums and antique shops, most notably the Wax Man Museum, which houses hundreds of lifelike statues of celebrities from around the world.
There are mountain bikes and playgrounds near the falls, and the Tavrin Kuril Park south of the falls is a secluded area of ponds and marshes where you can go boating and swimming.

The biggest drop: Angel Falls, also known as Chulenmeru Falls. It is located in the Guiana Plateau in the Bolivarian state of Venezuela, on the Chulon River, a tributary of the Caroni River.
The waterfall has a drop of 979 meters and a base width of 150 meters. The waterfall cascades straight down the flat-topped plateau of Mount Oyantepui, barely touching the cliffs. In 1935, the American explorer Angel discovered this waterfall, and then Angel's plane crashed near the waterfall, in honor of him, Venezuela **named the waterfall after Angel.
This is the largest waterfall in the world.
Widest: Iguazu Falls is located 23 kilometers upstream of the confluence of the Iguazu and Paraná rivers on the border between Argentina and Brazil. The waterfall is horseshoe-shaped, 82 meters high and 4 kilometers wide, four times the width of Niagara Falls in North America and wider than Victoria Falls in Africa.
The edge of the cliff is lined with wooded rocky islands that divide the Iguazu River into 275 rapids or waterfalls, ranging in height from 60 to 82 meters. During the rainy season from November to March, the maximum flow of the waterfall reaches 12,750 cubic meters per second, with an average annual flow of 1,756 cubic meters per second. The wide surface of the Iguazu River, which falls from the edge of the Paraná Plateau into a narrow canyon, forms this waterfall, which is described as it""The sea plunges into the abyss""。
The water splashes and rises, and the mist rises from the base of the waterfall for nearly 150 meters. The waterfall was first discovered in 1541 by the Spanish explorer Barca, and now Argentina and Brazil have established Iguazu National Park near the waterfall to protect the landscape and associated wildlife. This is the widest waterfall in the world.
