Culture Theater is a popular medium, with occasional offerings in Guaran­ as well as in Spanish. Visual arts of startling unconventionality can be seen in many galleries. Paraguay's pre-eminent literary figure is the poet-novelist Augusto Roa Bastos. Paraguayan music is something of a curiosity - despite the fact that the majority of the population still speaks the native tongue, the music is European in origin, with little or no traces of Black, Brazilian or Argentinian influences. The guitar and harp are popular instruments and songs are usually slow and lachrymose. Dances, such as the polka and bottle dance (so-called because performers swing around with a jar on their head) are, however, much livelier. Agust­n Barrios (1885-1944), one of Latin America's most revered composers for the guitar, often performed his music in full Guaran­ costume, promoting himself as the Paganini of the guitar from the Paraguayan jungles. Roman Catholicism is officially the country's religion, but the influence of the church is less pronounced than in many other Latin American countries. Other religious groups include fundamentalist Mennonites and the controversial New Tribes Mission, an evangelical group which operated with the collusion of Stroessner's dictatorship.

I come from Paraguay, a land-locked South American country. One of the main particularities of my country lies in its language. The Guarani is an aboriginal language that remains intact in today's Paraguayan society. In the days of internet Paraguayans still chat in Guarani quite more often than in Spanish. (Both are official Languages) and every day life they are mixed in a sort of slang that we call Jopara (that in guarani means Mix). It is a country of futbaalholics. The country will stop when the world cup starts. What 3 things do you value most? Family, friends, personal happiness How will you follow the World Cup? From a black and white TV in my university hall room and when it comes to England matches, I won't miss the chance to see it with a lager in a very traditional London Pub.

Select the information you want to see. Culture Tourism Cultural Contacts Due to the intermarriage of the Guarani Indian and Spanish civilization, Paraguay is a bilingual country, with aproximately 90% of its population speaking both languages. This historical process has also resulted in a mestizo culture which blends elements both Spanish and Guarani. CRAFTS: Aho-poi: fine clothing hand woven and hand made. This linen cloth is embroidered with threads of the same color, generally white. The typical aho-poi is produced in Yataity. Aho-poi shirts, blouses, tablecloths and napkins, are in very great demand. Nanduti: Made of industrialized fine cotton thread, with combinations of many colors, though the most traditional nanduti is white. It is used for centerpieces, mantles, and other display areas where the handwork and color combinations can be best apreciated. Ceramics: Pottery is a popular craft known by the Indians, such as, for example the colombian method and finger moulding of humid clay. Today you will find the classical "cantaro" (bucket), vessels, and human figures for decoration. The clay gains natural colors through the aplication of oxides and firing techniques (red, toasted, black). GASTRONOMY: In Paraguay, cuisine has a great home tradition, giving a delicious combination of meats and river fish, with a wide variety of fresh vegetables and fruits, which you can find throughout the year. The most popular dishes are based on corn, meat, milk and cheese. The main dishes are: Chipa Guazu, Bori-Bori, So'o-yosopy, Locro, Mbeyu, Puchero, Guiso, Mandioca and the famous and popular Chipa. The local drink preferred by Paraguayans is a locally produced dark rum, an alcoholic beverage made from sugar cane; and terere, an infusion of yerba mate (ilex paraguayensis) and cold water, sometimes flavored with medicinal herbs. It is served in guampas or mates (gourd) and sipped through a Bombilla which is a kind of metal straw.
