Welcome to Paraguay! Whether you arrive by plane or bus, pull some cash out of the ATMs at the airport or bus terminal. Use Moovit or ask locals (if your Spanish is decent) to figure out which bus to take to your hotel, or grab a taxi or Uber to save time.. • Drop your bags off and head to Mercado Cuatro (officially called Mercado Municipal 4) for a hot bowl of pira caldo, a traditional Paraguayan fish soup full of veggies and Paraguayan cheese. Browse the stalls to pick up souvenirs, like a guampo (a cup shaped like a horn) and a bombilla (metal filtered straw), for drinking tereré, a local yerba maté-infused tea.. • Take a short taxi ride to the Panteón Nacional de los Héroes, the resting place of Paraguay’s infamous president Don Carlos Antonio López, who led the War of the Triple Alliance. Learn more about the lasting effects of the war in the country, as well as admire the building itself, inspired by Paris’ Les Invalides. After you’ve wandered around and seen the changing of the guard, visit the Museo del Barro where you can learn more about Paraguayan history and see indigenous art.. • Eat diner at Bolsi, a diner serving Paraguayan plates like the tomato-smothered bife koygua, as well as an array of Brazilian and Argentine dishes. Finish the night at a jazz show at cultural center Dracena, and buy some provisions for a picnic lunch tomorrow.. • #South_and_Central #Day_1 #Asunción #One_Week_in_Paraguay_The_Ultimate_Itinerary
