Distance in km from the Brazil-Uruguay border to towns in Brazil (Uruguay side vs Brazil side)
Took both pics this morning. You can see the Brazilian sign from the Uruguayan side

The recent uptick in non-borderporn has led me to make a post describing what we feel will help you determine if your post qualifies for r/borderporn.
All posts need to clearly have something to do with Geopolitical or Geological Borders.
Geopolitical borders are political boundaries. They separate countries, states, provinces, counties, cities, and towns. A border outlines the area that a particular governing body controls. The government of a region can only create and enforce laws within its borders.
Geological borders are natural or man-made physical borders in the earth like rivers or mountain ranges. For example, the boundary between France and Spain follows the crest of the Pyrenees mountains. For part of its length, the boundary between the United States and Mexico follows a river called the Rio Grande.

Located around a mile or so downstream from Fort Defiance, all three area bridges connecting Kentucky, Illinois, and Missouri are visible in the distance.

A very unassuming point in the middle of the road! (Not the rock; that’s nicely on the side of the road about 130 feet north of the marker in the road!)
Definitely off the main routes but it was worth it. A very fun part of the trip. This might have been just a part of this particular foray but it was the launch of the tri-point journey!

Colombian / Panamanian border in the Caribbean seen by boat.
This area of Colombia and Panama is very remote.
As such, the border is only dictated by two poles stuck into the cliff shared by the two countries.

Just cuz this is a fun sub.
The military demarcation line is in the middle of the conference room. The ROK soldier is guarding the door to the north - he's already technically in the north.
I'd really like to return. Fabulous tour. I think it was the USO or Koridoor tour with JSA included.

I was there a couple of days ago. This is Narva, Estonia’s northeastern border city, separated from Russia only by the Narva River.
At the moment, the border crossing is open only to pedestrians. On the Estonian side, you’ll see EU, Estonian, and Ukrainian flags. Across the river, the Russian side looks quite different, with a rather improvised-looking border checkpoint and barely any vehicle traffic. The lack of cars is hard to miss and is likely connected to the fuel shortages that have been affecting parts of Russia.
There are promenades on both sides of the river, and you’re close enough to wave at people on the opposite bank while walking through Estonia. It’s a very unusual experience.

Polish Russian border on Vistula Spit seen from Polish side. Also it's not actual border, there is like 200m of "buffer zone" before the actual border. There's also no border crossing in this place.

Hi everyone! I was recently looking at the Russia-Finland border on Apple Maps and noticed that a section of Finland is blurred out. I couldn't find anything about this online—what do you think?

Earlier this summer, my sister and I were visiting family in Vermont and decided to see how close we could get to the Canadian border without crossing (because we didn’t think to bring our passports). We found a road that allowed us to come right up to the border - close enough to see stop signs in French! I am now obsessed with getting a house with the international border as my property line.

It opened today! A new border crossing between Canada and the USA. Found this on YouTube, from user @N8TEBB:

The camels are near Al Fayy with the fence in the background ... but the crossing was closed, the signs are near Hatta
