Known as the 'Land of the Sun and the Moon,' its capital city of Corrientes sits on the Paraná River, boasting elegant colonial architecture, lively chamamé music venues, and the stunning Costanera promenade. The province is a gateway to the magnificent Iberá Wetlands, one of the world's largest freshwater reserves, where travelers can kayak through mirror-like lagoons teeming with capybaras, caimans, and over 350 bird species. Experience authentic gaucho culture at traditional estancias, witness the explosive energy of Carnaval Correntino—Argentina's second-largest carnival—and explore the haunting ruins of Jesuit missions at Yapeyú, birthplace of General San Martín. From yerba mate plantations to the thundering Iguazú Falls on its northern border, Corrientes offers a uniquely Argentine blend of nature, culture, and warm hospitality.","Right","Type C, I; 220V, 50Hz",[19,22,25,28],{"key":20,"value":21},"Police","101",{"key":23,"value":24},"Ambulance","107",{"key":26,"value":27},"Fire","100",{"key":29,"value":30},"Tourist Police","+54 379 443-6262",[32,35,38,41,44],{"key":33,"value":34},"Do I need a guide for the Iberá Wetlands?","Yes, guided tours are mandatory for safety and conservation.
