Paraná River Aquarium

The Paraná River Aquarium is a public facility in Rosario dedicated to the river and its inhabitants. The building has indoor and outdoor areas where different tanks recreate the habitats found along the river system.

The facility was established in the 2010s as a modern project to research and teach people about the local river ecosystem. The project was part of broader efforts to develop Rosario as a scientific and cultural destination.

The aquarium was created to celebrate the river culture of the region and help people connect with the waterways that shape Rosario's identity. Visitors can observe how the local community uses this place to learn more about their river and its role in daily life.

The building is located near the waterfront area and is easily accessible on foot or by public transport. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes as there are multiple levels and outdoor areas to explore.

The cylindrical exhibition tanks are designed to represent different habitats of the Paraná River, showing visitors how conditions vary across different parts of the river system. This design allows aquatic animals to be seen in environments that closely resemble their natural homes.
