About Asunción

Asunción is Paraguay's capital on the Paraguay River, founded in 1537, with a riverside palace, a domed pantheon and colonial houses.

Asunción stands on a bend of the Paraguay River, with Argentina on the opposite shore, and was founded in 1537, becoming a base from which Spanish colonists set out to found other cities in the region. The Palacio de los López, a white neoclassical palace on the riverfront, is the centre of government, and the Panteón de los Héroes, a domed pantheon, holds the tombs of national heroes.
