Spent a few hours here during recent trip to Asunción. This museum is not to be missed. Comprehensive collection beautifully displayed. The only disappointment was the museum shop. I expected a much nicer shop with a more helpful staff in a museum of the quality.

A hilltop site of a Jesuit mission.
Reviewed By Nastame - Harrogate, United Kingdom
These ruins are a reminder of the damage that is done by colonialism to another nation's culture, in this case by the C18th Spanish. Fortunately, the Paraguayans had the sense to expel the Jesuits before too much damage was done. The site is open, relaxed viewing, a nice museum and the remains of some lovely sandstone ruins with a nice touch of Moorish architecture in the arches. Interesting and enjoyable visit.

Impressionante o passeio a usina hidroeletrica de Itaipu! Já tive a oportunidade de conhecer lugares incríveis, mas a experiencia do passeio a Itaipu é completamente diferente de tudo que já havia visto na vida. Conhecer a grandiosidade de ITAIPU e a historia desde a sua aprovação na época do regime militar até sua construção em 1975 e o que representa tanto do ponto de vista dos brasileiros e paraguaios, nao tem preco! A sua capacidade de producao de 14.000 MW , e o abastecimento de aproximadamente 18% do país me impressionou. Voce tem a oportunidade de conhecer a Usina e ter a experiencia de visualizar a imensidao que ela é e representa, pois são demonstrados dados durante a visitação que fazem voce ter um melhor comparativo. Nao esqueca de visitar tambem o ecomuseu, essa experiencia deixara a visita ainda mais enriquecedora. The tour to the Itaipu hydroelectric is spectacular! I've had the opportunity to visit incredible places, but the experience of the trip to Itaipu is completely different from everything I had ever seen in my life. To Know about the grandiosity of ITAIPU and the history behind there since the approval at time of the military regime until the construction in 1975, and what it represents to Brazilians and Paraguayans, is priceless! The Itaipu production capacity is 14,000 MW, and the hydroelectric supply approximately 18% of the country, It's made me impressive. The tour provides you the opportunity to know the factory and to have all the experience that brings you to the immensity of the construction. Using data during the tour you have a better comparision to understand what it's represents. Don't forget to visit the Ecomuseum as well, this experience will make the visit even more exciting.

I really couldn't believe my eyes while walking around this gorgeous property. Every room has such character and charm, as well as an authenticity to each of them. The grounds are perfectly kept, including 3 stunning little oasis, two beautiful gardens, and one with a spectacular pool and tennis clay court. The staff was phenomenal, with such genuine attention to detail, as well as extremely professional. I really could stayed there, or even spend a full day here just lounging around. I highly recommend going there for a visit, or even stay there at least one night!

Very small compared to Iguassu, but well worth a visit as these falls are very close to the Brasil and Argentina borders, so if you are looking for something to visit in Paraguay whilst in the area then these falls are ideal. Dramatic but small. You need to take the lift/elevator down to the base of the falls to really appreciate them. Only a 5 minute walk from the car park, you get a good return for very little effort! There is the usual array of local handicrafts to buy if you wish, but the sellers did not even engage with us so there is no pressure selling! The falls do not take credit cards, but they do take Brazil currency if you do not have local currency

Reviewed By termar - Hamilton, Canada
What the Jesuits sought to do was rather altruistic. There was no gold or silver in Paraguay, perhaps accounting for the willingness of Spain to give huge tracts of land to the Jesuits for their missions or reducciones to provide work for the natives and convert them to Christianity. Jesus de Tavarangue was never finished with the 1767 expulsion of the Jesuits. It moved around, settling here in 1760. The size of the church and the extent of the remains has made it a World Heritage Site. The principal building was of course the church, everything else reduced to a very low level. The church was built as a replica of St Ignatius of Loyoya in Italy, accounting for its size. From the mirador, Trinidad could be seen, a source of communication between the two Jesuit reductions.
