When I was younger I went to Lanin National Park, the park is in Neuquén and is very beautiful, have a lot of flowers, rocks, trees and birds. When you are there, you can see the Lanin volcano.The Lanin National Park is very important in Argentina.It was created in 1937 to preserve a good sample of the northern patagonian Andes woods and forests.



This is Cataratas del Iguazù National Park.This is a big national park and it is awesome.Iguazú falls are near the triple border between Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil.They are formed by 275 falls of up to 80 m of height, fed by the flow of the river Iguazú. You can walk along the catwalks, sail a boat under the falls and go trekking along the trails where you can see some animals of the jungle.

Iguazú National Park, created in 1934, protects some 60 thousand hectares (plus other nature reserve 7000) where they settle the Iguazu Falls. Nestled on the border between Argentina and Brazil are World Natural Heritage Site since 1984.
The islands are populated by plant species that can not be found elsewhere in the park as forests and Yvirá cupay Catú. The jungle and the river provide shelter to nearly 450 species of birds (toucans, hummingbirds, vultures, Macuco, carpenters, etc.) 80, mammals (giant anteater, peccary, jaguar, etc.) And many other reptiles, amphibians and fish, as well as the innumerable forms of invertebrates among which highlights the large number of butterflies.
For all these reasons it is advisable to walk in silence along the paths and enjoy the sounds, smells, footsteps and movements of the inhabitants of the jungle.

The 50 per cent of the turists who visit this place every year came from of other countries.

From September to April is the best moment to visit this place. Because is when the penguins arrive the coast to build their nest and look after their babies.

Penguins are like birds but they can't fly. They are black and white and they can swim very fast. Penguins can walk and jump too.
