What to do and see in Asuncion, Paraguay: The Best Points of Interest & Landmarks
The "Mother of Cities" was founded in 1537, and declared independence from Spain in 1811. The charming historic section can be explored on foot. The friendly Paraguayan capital, gateway to the grassy Gran Chaco region, has long been a center of music, poetry and the arts, but only in recent years has Asunción been able to escape its long history of dictatorship rule. Sites to visit include Panteon Nacional de los Heroes, Casa de la Independencia and Catedral de Nuestra Senora de Asuncion.

we didn't really know what to expect, because there's not much written about Loma San Jeronimo (in english anyway). there's not much to do, but it's just cute to see. you'll notice there are no above-ground powerlines (apparently this is the only part of asuncion that's invested in making this change). also some free wifi in the neighborhood center, as well as a free "mirador" where you can get a nice view of the city. there's lots of colorful street art, too. it was definitely one of my favorite places in asuncion.
