The architecture in Paraguay, similar to many countries in South America, is a remnance of a the beauty that once was in South America. Many cities in the southern continent are now falling apart due to negligence, corruption, and lack of maintenance. I can compare a few countries that fit into this category alongside Asuncion including […]

Presidential Palace In Asuncion, Paraguay
The Presidential Palace in Paraguay was quite nice. There was an intense amount of security in the area as just a few feet there was a Brazilian Favela.
