    If you like beautiful buildings, you're gonna like this one. When I went there, it was all lit up during the evening. A very nice sight to see.

    (Translated by Google) The Palace de Lopez is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful places in Paraguay. There were many protests in 2019 and the Palace area was partially closed, so it was not possible to inspect everything in detail. Despite this, the place is very beautiful, peaceful. A nearby park will allow you to escape from the sun in the hottest weather. I recommend it! (Original) Палац де Лопес - на мою думку, одне з найгарніших місць в Парагваї. У 2019 році було багато протестів і територія Палацу частково була закрита, тому не вдалося все детально оглянути. Не зважаючи на це, місце дуже гарне, спокійне. Парк, який знаходиться поруч дасть можливість сховатися від сонця у саму жарку погоду. Рекомендую!

    The museum itself is a relatively small two-story building with a small interior courtyard. The only reason to go there is to see the works by Carlos Colombino. One work fills an entire wall, there are some of his political works, and there are two objets d'art. The rest of this museum is filled with a bizarre mix of artifacts from other countries, a room full of various crosses and other things related to the Catholic history of the region, and modern art including performance art that is best compared to the Dada movement in France. There is a small museum store with an attendant, and the large Colombino book is sold here. The coffee shop is closed. Even with its shortcomings, this is the best museum Paraguay has to offer, and it is a private museum. If you know anything about South America, you understand why.

    The "Palacio López" (Lopez palace) is the seat of the Executive Branch of the Government of Paraguay. The building is located in the center of the city of Asunción, on "Paraguayo Independiente" street, between "Ayolas" and "O'Leary" streets, on the shores of Asunción Bay, a geographical feature corresponding to the Paraguay River. It was built in a neoclassical style with a certain "palladian" influence. The building began its construction in 1857, and was paralyzed by the outbreak of the War of the Triple Alliance. During the War, the City of Asunción was looted and bombed by the Triple Alliance, leaving the building in an inhospitable state. After a few years, the infrastructure was completed in 1867 and after many years of unstable politics, it was opened and used as the seat of government in 1892.

    Neoclassical palace that serves as the seat of government and workplace of the Paraguayan president. It was built by Carlos Antonio López, the leader of Paraguay from 1841 to 1862, to serve as a home for his son. One should also come at night to see it lit up, and it is well-guarded.
