Paraguay couldn’t be found in the list of the most popular travel destinations on the planet, but it is rich in remarkable Paraguay hotels, natural magnificence and fascinating culture. This landlocked country is a place of contrasts, with untamed plains, marshes, lagoons, dense forests, and jungles, and welcoming towns and cities. Here is the listing of the best sights that will catch the eyes of visitors.
1.Asuncion- The capital of Paraguay is really wonderful with its stunning colonial architecture along with other cultural attractions. It is one of the most attractive destinations in the country, where you can find a good number of hotels in Paraguay providing good accommodation options. Although it has few traditional sights like beaches, skyscrapers or impressive parks, it has an unmistakable atmosphere which will bind you with its spell. The Municipal Museum as well as the Visual Arts Museum are not very large, but they have some exciting and even unusual exhibits. In case you are enthusiastic about architecture, check out the building of the National Congress, probably the most impressive constructions in the capital.
2.Encarnacion- Encarnacion is not a great destination by itself, but the nearby Jesuit missions of La Santisima Trinidad de Parana and Jesus de Tavarangue are World Heritage Site and they are well worth visiting. The ruins are not very extensive, but they are completely gorgeous. The missions date back to the early 17th century, and they are some of the most significant religious creations of the Jesuits not only in Paraguay, but the whole of South America.
3.Igua u Falls- One of the greatest natural wonders in the world, Igua u Falls are located in the meeting point among Paraguay, Brazil and Argentina. To go to the falls, you have to go through the town of Ciudad del Este, which provides plenty of shopping options especially low cost goods. Igua u Falls are just across the river Ciudad del Este, so the town is a fine base for exploring the falls.
4.Gran Chaco-if you’re interested in some eco-travel, you have to definitely explore the untainted wilderness of Gran Chaco, which has been practically untouched by tourism for a long time. The area is sparsely populated, and only about 3% of the population of the country lives at the area. However, the few towns and cities have colonial architecture and so they offer a number of opportunities to discover the culture and traditions of the Guarani people. Nature fans shouldn t miss the Parque Nacional Defensores del Chaco, with its extensive thorn forest teeming with wildlife.
5.Yaguar n-The small town of Yaguar n is not far from the capital, and it’s a great destination for several days at least. It is a perfect place to book a good hotel in Paraguay and enjoy the town s pleasant atmosphere. The most important landmark in the town is the quaint little church built in the 17th century by Franciscan missionaries. If you re enthusiastic about the history of the country, visit the Jos Gaspar Rodr guez de Francia museum, the birthplace of the dictator.
