[National Pantheon of the Heroes | A symbol of Paraguay honoring the heroes of Asuncion]

[National Pantheon of the Heroes | A symbol of Paraguay that honors the heroes of Asuncion] — Neoclassical architecture filled with Paraguayan history and pride — 📍**[Location]** Located in the center of Asuncion, near the intersection of Palma Street and Chile Street, it is convenient for walking around the city  ⸻ ✨Recommended points • A symbolic mausoleum of the country where the remains of historical figures active in the 19th and 20th centuries (General Solano Lopez, Chaco War hero Estigarribia, etc.) are enshrined  • Construction began in 1863 and was completed in 1936. The imposing neoclassical architecture, modeled after the Pantheon in Rome, is worth seeing. • The Latin inscription on the front, "Fides et Patria (Faith and Fatherland)," creates a dignified atmosphere. • The "changing of the guard" ceremony is held several times every day, so you can feel the solemn atmosphere. • The lush front garden and the beautiful night lighting make it a great spot for taking photos. ⸻ 🎒 Tips • The museum is open from around 7:00 to 17:00. If you visit early in the morning in the silence, you can enjoy a special time. • You can just see the exterior, but if you want to visit the inside, it will be even more impressive if you time it with the changing of the guard. • Photography is allowed. However, there may be temporary restrictions during the ceremony. Check in advance! • There is a garden, so it's perfect for a break while strolling around. #AbsolutelyFreeTrip #Paraguay #Asuncion
