Port Circuit

A stroll along the central waterfront tracing the port’s history.

The first activities held on the central coast are directly linked with Rosario’s early development. The area was chosen to build the first piers for trading goods and receiving immigrants from all over the world. Later, the huge port built there, with 2.5 miles of piers and 12.5 miles of railroads, transformed Rosario into one of the most thriving cities of Argentina. Due to public policies implemented as of the end of the 20th century, the area was renovated. Nowadays, trails and green areas allow visitors to enjoy a stroll that not only includes the sight of the river, but also the possibility of getting immersed in the city’s history.
