World Heritage Greetings: #2 Jesuit Missions, Paraguay
“The ruins of the Jesuit Reductions in the heart of South America: A bridge to the past and a place of silence and reflection. On the trail of the Guaranís, an indigenous nation, whose culture is still alive, especially in the language and local handicrafts. Paraguay fascinates and touches us!”
