Bella Union

This compact Uruguayan town at the tripoint where Uruguay, Brazil, and Argentina meet, where the Cuareim and Uruguay rivers converge. Gaucho culture is visible in daily life — horses are a common sight on the streets and on the surrounding agricultural land. Duty-free shops are the main commercial draw, catering largely to cross-border visitors from Argentina and Brazil but open to any foreign passport holder.
