V!VA User‘s Description

Once bigger than Buenos Aires, Asunción is more than 450 years old and known as the Mother of Cities. With a population of just more than one million citizens today, the city is peaceful —as far as Latin American capital cities go— and offers decent shopping and some interesting historical spots like the Palacio del Gobierno (Government Palace), which is in the style of the Louvre in Paris. The Plaza de los Heroes features the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, as well as shopping and a lovely water garden. For a panoramic view of the city, check out the restaurant on the top floor of the Guaraní Hotel. Wander the city, shop for artisan crafts or relax in an outdoor café sipping the most popular local drink—terrere.

Traveler Reviews of Asunción

Asuncion

Rating: 75%

Very poor streets. Not very clean. Very poor population. Not many interesting sites to visit. Good shopping and less expensive than other counties in Latin America. I went there because I had family over in Asuncion but I would not recommend it.
