2Gulfoss Falls, Iceland
Gulfoos Falls literally translates into Golden Falls, and this is nothing less than a natural treasure for Iceland. One of the country’s most popular natural attractions, Gulfoss runs through the Hvita River. Come summers and visitors can witness surreal rainbows floating in the mist above the falls.
Truly Instagram worthy! The iconic Icelandic waterfall is known for its jaw dropping beauty and can be viewed on the Golden Circle tour nestled in southern Iceland. Gulfoss receives water originating from the melting of Langiokull glacier. The water cascades 32 meters in a couple of stages down a rough canyon.
Beautiful scenes

Hi! Thanks for your comment! Yes, California in general is a great place to visit! (Just don’t stray too far off the beaten path in the cities. Thanks for reading my stuff!
I couldn’t get to #22. Where was it?
That’s odd. We will have to check on that. So how far did you get?
If Vic falls is the largest on planet,why is it hidden inside, should it not be the first?
Hello!
Thanks for the question. The list is not meant to be in any specific order. My guess is the numbers were added simply for convenience. Thanks for reading!
What?! No Niagara Falls.
Hi!
Niagara Falls simply did not quite make it into the top 22 in the world but it was on there a little lower. In fact, when you focus on North America it always makes the list! Thanks for your comment and for reading our stuff!

Hello!
To be fair, everyone has their favorites. I rarely have anything to do with selecting finalists unless there is recent repetition. But if I am assigned to write a sequel, I will suggest them. Thanks for your comment and support!
Thank you for the beautiful pictures! I just want to make a correction : the Iguazú falls are between Brazil and Argentina (not Argentia). Kindest regards.
Hi!
Wow! I thought we had fixed that a long time ago lol Apparently the correction never updated. Thanks. Hopefully it is fine now. Thanks for the input and thanks for reading!

The list only goes to 21. Great list but what’s #22
Hi!
Someone asked that question years ago when it was first published. Either one was mysteriously dropped from the list OR one includes multiples, so we counted it twice. Thanks for your support and hopefully we will be publishing more material here soon.
