There are five neighbourhoods called "Barrios" in the city: Then main one is the Barrio San Pablo, the other 4 are: Barrio Santa Teresita, Barrio San Blás, Barrio San Antonio, and Barrio San Roque-within which is the original Chapel, built by franciscans during the Spanish rule in Paraguay. The Franciscan mission at Caazapá was an important event in Paraguayan cultural heritage.
Some attractions are the Church, the Ykua Bolaños (Bolaños lagoon) and the Museum Juan Bernardo that contains the cross in which missionary Juan Bernardo Colman was executed.
Etymology The city gets its name from the Spanish mission of the Franciscan Order originally located in it. The latter was called Caaçapá in Classical Guarani, meaning "[the place] after the forest". This was due to the natives' belief that somewhere beyond the forest God, through Friar Luis de Bolaños, had made water spring out.
Caazapá has a population of over 23,996 people. Caazapá also forms the centre of the wider Caazapá Department which has a population of over 139,479 people.
