==Tourism== The Triple Frontier is an important tourist area, within the touristic subregion of the [[Región de las Aguas Grandes]]. Visitors can see the [[Puente Internacional Tancredo Neves|Tancredo Neves bridge]], which connects the Argentine city of Puerto Iguazú and its Brazilian neighbor, Foz do Iguaçu. At the convergence of the borders, each of the three bordering countries has erected an [[obelisk]], painted in the national colors of the country in which it is located. All three countries can be seen from each of the obelisks.

The majority (71%) of its 1.2 million square kilometers lies in Brazil. {{citation needed|date=February 2012}} [[File:Brazilian Obelisk.jpg|alt=Brazilian Obelisk|thumb|328x328px|Brazilian Obelisk]]
