Encarnacion

Built around a Jesuit mission, Encarnación grew into a major Paraguayan city on the Paraná River, facing Posadas in Argentina across the water. Its broad Costanera riverfront has become a focal point for walks, beaches and public life, while the San José Beach brings an unexpectedly urban shoreline to the city centre. Encarnación is also known for the Carnaval Encarnaceno, one of Paraguay’s leading carnival celebrations. The UNESCO-listed Jesuit Missions of La Santísima Trinidad de Paraná and Jesús de Tavarangue lie in the surrounding department of Itapúa.
