AT#927 – Travel to Paraguay

  1. AT#927 - Travel to Paraguay Chris Christensen 1:03:35

Hear about travel to Paraguay as the Amateur Traveler talks to Alex from AdventureToEveryCountry.com about this lesser-visited country that he has come to love.

Why should you visit Paraguay?

Alex says, “So Paraguay is more about the culture than anything else. It’s not a country that you come to for Bucket List tourist attractions. That’s something where you might go to neighboring Brazil for Rio or Iguazu Falls on the border with Argentina. Paraguay is much more low-key. It’s more about authentic culture, getting to know the locals, and getting off the tourist trail.”

Alex recommends several attractions and experiences for visitors to Paraguay, focusing on its unique cultural, historical, and natural offerings:

AsunciĂłn (Capital City)

  1. Palacio de los López: The President’s Palace, an iconic colonial-style building.
  2. Pantheon of Heroes: A mausoleum and site of national pride where past heroes are honored.
  3. Casa de la Independencia: A free museum showcasing Paraguay’s peaceful independence history.
  4. Centro Cultural Manzana de la Rivera: A cultural center highlighting traditional Paraguayan music and arts.
  5. Costanera: A riverside promenade with views of the Paraguay River and the city.
  6. Paulista Grill: A Brazilian-style steakhouse serving exceptional meat and a variety of other dishes.
  7. Negroni Sky Bar: An upmarket bar offering panoramic views of the Paraguay River.
