{"product_id":"9781841625614","title":"Paraguay","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe new edition of the first and still most comprehensive guidebook to Paraguay in English is engagingly written by a long-term resident. Paraguay is an emerging tourist destination, rapidly improving its facilities but still mercifully free from tourist tat. You can explore savannahs dotted with palm trees, red-earth roads, empty river-beaches, damp Atlantic forests, or the wild Chaco's 'green desert', all without running into another foreigner. You can swing in a hammock chugging slowly upriver, and enjoy some of the best bird-watching in the world. Folk dance, harp playing and handicraft – particularly in sewing – are vibrant, living traditions. This is still a bilingual nation, with Guaraní spoken alongside Spanish – its character shaped by the legendary Jesuit missions with their romantic ruins and fine sculptures of saints, where the indigenous remained protected from European exploitation for a century and a half.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bradt Publications UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47061885157616,"sku":"9781841625614","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781841625614_p0.jpg?v=1763741332","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781841625614","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
