It's like a jewel of the colonial epoch, which preserves the enchantment of the old times.-

It can be noticed in its houses of tiles, mud and stone in Spanish an Portuguese styles. Today they are restored and painted in bright colors. Among its walls you can find warm hotels such as "Plaza Mayor".-

You can feel a nostalgic air that gives off from its paved streets, the yellow lanterns hanging in the doors, the flowery flowerpots standing in the windows and a lonely lighthouse looking over the river which surrounds the old city. A real charm that equally captures filmmakers, international artists, tourists and couples in love.-
