Travel to Paraguay

Paraguay is the "wilderness area" of South America, a country little known even among its neighbors. For much of its history, has distanced himself from Latin American mainstream, and along a significant period of time of the twentieth century has been the most notorious police state and permanently in South America.

P. J. O'Rourke wrote that "Paraguay is nowhere and is famous for nothing", who later, in making a quick visit to cover the elections, immediately fell in love with the place. Probably the traveler happens the same, since Paraguay has made great strides to overcome its political isolation, economic and geographical, and is now a tourist destination. The capital is a quiet spot on the banks of the Paraguay River, the country also offers impressive Jesuit missions, several national parks and one of the most deserted areas of South America: the vast, arid Chaco.
