The Three Borders : info and guided tour
Introduction to Las Tres Fronteras
Las Tres Fronteras is the meeting point of the Iguazú River and the Paraná River, where Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay come together. In Puerto Iguazú, this landscaped site is known for its open views over the three countries and for its fitted lookout, now one of the city’s most emblematic landmarks.
The place owes its fame to its exceptional geographic position, visible from the esplanade on Tres Fronteras Avenue. From there, you can observe the course of the rivers and the nearby banks, in a setting that is both urban and natural. The whole site is appreciated for the clear understanding it offers of the triple border.
Las Tres Fronteras is not a monument in the classic sense, but a place for contemplation shaped by landscaping and unobstructed views. The site is often associated with sunset, when the waters take on changing hues. It is this border landscape, simple and immediately legible, that makes it such a famous place.
