Situated approximately 270 kilometers from Iguazú, this site has been recognized as a UNESCO Cultural Heritage site. The ruins present there will enhance your understanding and appreciation of the remarkable contributions made by the Jesuits. Known as the Reduction of San Ignacio, these ruins were established by Jesuits and constructed by the Guaraní people nearly 400 years ago. The facade of the temple, crafted from pink sandstone in 1610, underwent reconstruction in the 20th century
