Misiones Province
Argentina’s Misiones Province is a land of contrasts: Carmine soil and jade vegetation, of indigenous M’bya Guaranà and immigrant European communities which continue to speak their native languages. It owes its name to the 16th and 17th Century Jesuit missions whose ruins peek from the Paranaense jungle. It is a finger pointing into Paraguay and Brazil, whose strong influence is savored in the cuisine and Portunhol spoken in El Soberbio and other border towns. Vast plantations of yerba mate and tea patchwork this earth embroidered by breathtaking waterfalls like Saltos de Moconá, all culminating with Cataratas de Iguazú.
