Delicate Gothic architecture in the tropics at this Jesuit mission - now a declared World Heritage site.
In the 18th century, during the colonization process of Paraguay (and Brazil and Argentina), Jesuits found their way into this New World, and successfully established tens of missions in a region which is now Southern Paraguay, Northern Argentina and a small part of Western Brazil. In fact, they were so successful that the Spanish intervened and eventually put an end to their mission. What remains now are ruins, which have been declared World Heritage sites by Unesco: Trinidad and Jesús, near the town of Encarnación.
