ArabiaWeather.com - Omar Dajani - Waterfalls are formed in the world as a result of the erosion of soft rocks as a result of the strong passage of water, which leads to the formation of a steep cliff from which water rushes strongly in what is called a waterfall.

Some of the waterfalls in the world are very tall, which generates great views.

Here are 10 waterfalls in the world:

1) Iguazu Falls between Argentina and Brazil: These waterfalls extend over a wide area of 2 km, with a tumbling water fall rate of more than 1.3 million liters per second.

2) Victoria Falls in Zambia: It is a single water waterfall, extending over an area of 1.7 km, with a height of 108 meters, with a roaring water fall rate of 1 million liters per second.

3) Niagara Falls in Canada: the most famous waterfalls on the globe, and with the strongest water rush, as the waterfall pours 2.8 million liters of water per second.

4) Plitvice Falls in Croatia: It is difficult to see a more beautiful view of these waterfalls, a paradise on earth in all the meaning of the word.

5) Angel Falls in Venezuela: The height of this waterfall is about 1000 meters, as the water falls from the well-known Table Mountain within the tropical forests of Venezuela.

6) Yosemite Waterfall in the United States of America: This waterfall is characterized by the apparent change of color of its water with the movement of the sun's rays, but it does not continue throughout the year, but rather stops with the dry days in the summer.

7) Kaitor Waterfall in Guyana: a wonderful view inside the tropical forests

8) Gullfoss Waterfall in Iceland: one of the most attractive waterfalls for tourists and adventurers in the world.
