About Asunción
Asunción sprawls on the Paraguay River as South America's most overlooked capital, a city of elegant colonial plazas and low-rise architecture where the Guaraní language persists. The city moves at a slower pace than neighbors, with refined restaurants and cultural institutions worthy of its historical importance. Asunción rewards curiosity.
