Covering a combined area of 250,000 hectares of subtropical forest, these parks are designated as a World Natural Heritage Site. The Argentine park was established in 1934 and the Brazilian park in 1939, both aimed at managing and preserving the water source and surrounding environment. The parks were recognized as World Heritage Sites in 1984 and 1986, respectively. Since 2002, Iguaçu National Park has been a geological site in Brazil. The first European to find the Iguaçu Falls was Spanish explorer Álvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca in 1541.
