Three Borders Landmark, Itaipu, and the Paraná waterfront
The best sunsets in Foz do Iguaçu are at the Three Borders Landmark, where the Iguaçu and Paraná rivers meet with all three countries in view, and at the Itaipu dam. The Paraná river waterfront and some of the city's lookouts also make for beautiful late-afternoon scenes.
Quick answer: The Three Borders Landmark offers the classic sunset experience, where the sun sets over the meeting of the rivers with Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay visible on the horizon, plus a cultural show — arrive before 6 p.m. Alternatively, Itaipu provides impressive views of the dam and reservoir in late afternoon, while the Paraná waterfront and Gramadão offer quieter open spaces for sunset viewing.
