La Cienaga

La Ciénaga is a large, seasonal swamp located in Argentina's northeastern region, including parts of the province of Corrientes. It forms when the Paraná and Paraguay rivers flood, creating a vast, shallow wetland. This area is vital for biodiversity, serving as habitat for numerous fish, bird, and plant species. It also plays a key role in water regulation, flood control, and supporting local ecosystems. During dry periods, the water recedes, revealing marshy land, while heavy rains can cause extensive flooding. La Ciénaga's ecological importance and natural beauty make it a significant feature of the region's landscape.
