Things to Do in Asuncion

There's lots to try here, and most of it is delicious! Do you prefer outdoor activities? Then visit the Botanical Gardens just a short ride from the center. The old estate of the Lopez dynasty has been converted to house a small zoo and nature reserve, a natural history museum, and a gallery focusing on indigenous cultures. If museums are your thing, don’t miss the opportunity to check out the Barro Museum. It has everything from indigenous crafts to political caricatures.
