The project

Art, territory, and memory
as a force for the future.

Conceived by the Hotel das Cataratas and Cidades Invisíveis in association with the Onças do Iguaçu Project, the Tembiapo Mandu’a Porã Ndive Project emerges from the intersection of art, culture, conservation, and belonging.

Developed alongside the Indigenous community of Tekoha Ocoy, home to the Avá-Guarani people, the project promotes artistic workshops, cultural exchanges, and experiences deeply connected to the territory.

This initiative seeks to amplify voices, preserve ancestral knowledge, and create pathways where tradition, identity, and future move forward together.

The experience

An invitation to experience purpose.

From September 17 to 20, 2026, guests will have the opportunity to take part in a transformative journey.

Over four days, the program will connect nature, art, culture, and social impact through exclusive experiences, cultural encounters, gastronomic experiences, and visits to the Tekoha Ocoy community.

The journey will culminate in a charity auction held in the Hotel das Cataratas gardens.
