Day 30 - San Ignacio Mini



After a very luxorious overnight bus--great meals, good movies, roomy seats, and wine service--I arrived in San Ignacio Mini. This is a short detour from the well-beaten tourist track to Iguazu Falls. It is a beautiful little town with rust colored streets and the first glimpse of the lush rainforests that one imagines when they think of South America.

The main attraction to this town is the jesuit ruins. I spent a couple of hours just walking around the surprisingly well-preserved buildings. Most impressive, were the temple walls and the beautifully crafted floors.
