Puerto Iguazú Essentials

Puerto Iguazú serves as the gateway to the Iguazú Falls, but the town itself offers unique ecological and cultural sites. Visit the Hito Tres Fronteras where the Iguazú and Paraná rivers meet, marking the borders of Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay. Explore sustainable architecture at La Aripuca, built from massive salvaged timber, or the recycled Casa de las botellas. The town also features specialized wildlife spaces like the Hummingbird Garden and Güirá Oga rescue center, alongside local markets like the Feirinha, known for regional delicacies.
