Rosario - A City by the River

Rosario is located about 3 hours from Buenos Aires and is situated on the Parana River. The river is a popular gathering place for recreation, casual dining, and the occasional purchase. The fish pictured in this post were harvested from the river. A terrific restaurant called Escauriza serves a variety of grilled fish from the river. My favorites were Boga and Dorado. Signage suggests that these large fish can be purchased 3 for 10 pesos which equates to about $1.00 USD per fish!

Perhaps the most prominent landmark or feature on the Parana River is the Rosario Victoria Bridge which separates the cities of Rosario and Victoria. Both are located in different states of Argentina. The bridge was completed in 2002 and is a beautiful structure with a total length of 4,098 meters.
