Introducing Paraná

Comfortably down-at-heel and unpretentious, likable Paraná seems surprised at its own status as capital of Entre Ríos province. Perched on the hilly banks of its eponymous river, it’s a sleepy, slow-paced city with little in the way of nightlife. The nicest part of town is the riverside where a pretty park slopes down to the costanera, where there are beaches, bars, boat trips, and hundreds of strollers and joggers. After the defeat of Rosas at the battle of Caseros, Paraná was the capital of the Argentine Confederation (which didn’t include Buenos Aires) from 1853 to 1861.
