R$ 40 million investment revitalizes tourist spot in Foz do Iguaçu
The Three Borders Landmark in Foz do Iguaçu will receive new attractions in 2026, including observation decks, panoramic elevators, and a food hub. The R$ 40 million project, managed by Grupo Cataratas, also restores the Espaço das Américas, a former abandoned convention center on the banks of the Paraná River.
New Features at the Landmark
The tourist site, located at the confluence of the Paraná and Iguaçu rivers, will undergo a transformation that includes the installation of observation decks, exhibition galleries, and food areas. Panoramic elevators will offer new perspectives of the rivers that define the borders between Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay.
Restoration of Espaço das Américas
The Espaço Gastronômico das Américas, renamed from the former Mercosur convention center that had been vacant for years, is slated to reopen in mid‑December. The facility, inaugurated in 1997 by the Paraná state government, never operated as intended as a convention and cultural events venue.
Site Context
The Landmark symbolizes the territorial demarcation of the Triple Frontier. Small obelisks were erected in the early 20th century on each bank (Brazilian, Paraguayan, and Argentine) to mark each territory's sovereignty. The site welcomed 500,000 visitors the previous year, according to released data.
