4 days in Asuncion Itinerary

Paraguay's capital and economic center, Asuncion ranks among the youngest cities on the continent, with more than half of its residents under 30 years of age.

Museum-lovers will get to explore Gran Hotel del Paraguay and Museo del Barro. Deepen your sense of the past at sights like Casa de la Independencia and Castillo Carlota Palmerola. When in Asuncion, make a side trip to see Playa De Aregua in Aregua, approximately Aregua away. There's much more to do: walk around Parque Nu Guasu, ponder the world of politics at Palacio de López, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Catedral de Nuestra Senora de la Asuncion, and examine the collection at Museo de la Estacion Central del Ferrocarril Carlos Antonio Lopez.
