Paraguay Country side towns (Photos)

Just a quick post to let you know that I found an interesting side with some photos of Concepcion know as the north Pearl, Encarnacion, and other small towns…they are so beautiful and peaceful…..Everyday seems Sunday!

I just love Paraguay Colonial architecture style, I just bothers me that no body really takes care of those magnificent buildings…

And again that shows that Paraguay had better times in the past…and I hope better winds will blow towards the heart of South America very soon again.

Concepción,la Perla del Norte del PARAGUAY

Concepción,es la ciudad norteña por excelencia del Paraguay… También llamada La Perla del Norte (Encarnación es la Perla del Sur) ó Ciudad del Trópico,puesto que se encuentra en la misma latitud del Trópico de Capricornio. Es una ciudad ribereña,a orillas del majestuoso Río Paraguay y es una de las poblaciones más antiguas de todo el norte paraguayo. Ciudad muy cálida,muy tropical,de calles amplias. Capital del departamento de su mismo nombre. Como podrán darse cuenta,las principales ciudades del Paraguay tienen nombres relacionados a la Vírgen María : Concepción,Asunción,Encarnción,Pilar,etc…

    Lovely. I seem to recall that you are from Ciudad del Este. It looks like we may be moving there after two years in Asunción. The first year in Asunción we will be learning Guarani.

    These are gorgeous photos! Love the red earth… reminds me of Prince Edward Island, Canada. I remember back in the 90s, an enterprising veterinary medicine student there decided to make PEI dirt shirts, shirts dyed from the clay. I see they have a site now: http://www.peidirtshirt.com/

    I really enjoy reading your entries and learning more each time!
