About Hito Tres Fronteras

At the confluence of the Iguazú and Paraná rivers, each country built a landmark painted in its flag colours. From the Argentine one, in Puerto Iguazú, you can see the Brazilian and Paraguayan ones across the water.

There is a promenade with viewpoints, craft stalls and food. It is the classic sunset plan after a day at the falls.

Local tip

Go at sunset: the sun sets over Paraguay and the promenade lights come on at night.
