Spending a month in Asunción, Paraguay opened my eyes to what a marvelous and overlooked place the capital city is. Everyone could find something to enjoy in Asunción.
In this video, I'll take you to numerous neighborhoods in the city and show you what different parts of town are like. That will include everything from the City Centre, to the most popular neighborhood, Villa Morra, to the oldest neighborhood in Asunción, The Chacarita.

Just a week ago when I was in Lima I watched your video about Miraflores, a very nice and enjoyable video! I was also just outside Miraflores but went there on a daily basis to swim. I was surprised by how nice it was there, especially compared to other parts of the city. I just got into Asuncion and this popped up in my recommended, thanks for the videos Oh yeah and everything is super cheap here (mostly)

Soy peruano. Conozco Chiclayo y no se parece absolutamente en nada a Asunción. A todas las ciudades de Perú les falta áreas verdes, porque sus alcaldes solo construyen “parques” llenos de cemento y mamarrachos de esculturas. Si uno quiere ver algo verde, tiene que salir de la ciudad.

On occasion, I will take a day trip with a tour company, but in Paraguay there weren't many of those offered. I'm sorry I can't be of more assistance.
