Concepción
V!VA User‘s Description
Reached by riverboat trip from Asunción, Concepción (pop. 25,000) is worth a visit only if you have a week to spare and are looking for an adventure. The weeklong roundtrip cruise from Asunción is truly the attraction more than the destination of this small town 210 km (130 miles) north of the capital. There is great bird watching and wildlife viewing in the nearby Chaco if you have access to a vehicle with four-wheel drive.
Traveler Reviews of Concepción
people here make jamaicans look like stressed out yuppies
100%If you are looking for a place to chill, look no further. People are great, the 1920's architecture is majestically crumbling, there's always a chicken roasting on the spit, and there is always place in the shade next to the locals more than willing to share their terere (iced tea). At night, have a quiet drink with the locals in a dive, or in a hip lounge bar (okay, there's only one, I know, but still, it's there!) If watching one of the most majestic sunsets in the world from the old docks still doesn't chill you out, you might want to consider presciption drugs...
