Iguazu's Triple Frontier and Itaipu
Stay in Foz do Iguaçu city for both sides of the falls plus Itaipu, Ciudad del Este in Paraguay and the Monday Falls: three countries in one trip.
A 5-day pace recommended by the Foz tourism authorities: start with the Brazilian side and the bird park, then give the Argentine side a full day, followed by the Itaipu hydroelectric dam and the mosque. On day 4, cross into Paraguay to explore Ciudad del Este and see the Monday Falls, and on the last day visit the Buddhist temple and the Triple Frontier landmark before leaving. You stay in Foz city throughout, with convenient dining and transport, which suits travelers who want to see both the falls and the culture of the border cities.
Whether the Itaipu spillway is open depends on the water level, and it's more likely to be seen in the rainy season.
