Travel planning, accommodations, sightseeing, geography, sports, and tourism for the more populated region of Paraguay.
The priests of the Society of Jesus, more commonly known as Jesuits, developed the series of missions, called a reducción in Spanish, or redução in Portuguese, in what is now Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Uruguay and Paraguay as a social and economic extension of the mission to bring the Roman Catholic religion to the indigenous populations.
The Jesuit Missions in South America began in Brazil, then spread to what is now Argentina, Bolivia and Paraguay, with one in Uruguay. They are all on the tourist mission circuit, and a worthwhile visit to learn about Spanish and Portuguese colonial history.

Description, attractions and recommendations.
"Just across the river from Foz do Iguaçu, the town, in southern Brazil lies this small bordertown Ciudad del Este of Paraguay. This is not really an ideal spot for tourists."
"Estancia Santa Clara is located on a beautiful, peaceful ranch surrounded by endless hills and plains where you can feel in harmony with nature. It is built on 2,100 hectares (5,189 acres) and located in Caapucú, 141 km (88 miles) from Asunción."

"Avec près de 90 000 habitants, Ciudad del Este est l'une des villes importantes du Paraguay, qui s'est rapidement développée grace à son activité intense et à la proximité du complexe hydraulique paraguayo-brésilien, le barrage d'Itaipu."
