¿Sabías que este guerrero de piedra guarda el espíritu rebelde de los guaraníes que resistieron a los conquistadores?
The monument is open 24 hours a day year-round, as it is an outdoor sculpture accessible at all times, although visiting during daylight hours is recommended for safety. It is located in central Caazapá, easy to reach by car via Route PY02 or by bus from Asunción; use Google Maps for precise directions. For more information, visit the official Senatur website.
Visiting the Indian Monument is completely free, with no admission fee or hidden charges. Just consider transportation or parking costs if you travel by car. Ideal for low-budget trips—make the most of it!
It is recommended to spend between 30 and 45 minutes admiring the sculpture, taking photos, and reading the informational plaques. If you combine it with a walk around the area, it can extend to 1 hour. It is a quick but striking visit.
Created in 2010 by local artist Koki Ruiz using recycled scrap metal, the monument pays tribute to the Guaraní warrior and represents Paraguayan Indigenous resistance. At 12 meters tall, it symbolizes the cultural strength of the Caazapá region. A unique work that highlights Paraguayan craftsmanship.
The best time is during spring (September-November) or autumn (March-May) to avoid the intense summer heat. Go in the morning or late afternoon for good photographic light and fewer crowds. Avoid rainy days because of the ground conditions.
Access is partially accessible: the base is flat, but there are some uneven steps around it. We recommend lightweight wheelchairs or assistance; contact the Caazapá municipality at +595 541 22020 for updated details.
Nearby you will find the historic Caazapá Church and Ñakaru Hill, ideal for a full day out. Also the Caazapá Ethnographic Museum is 5 minutes away. Explore more on TripAdvisor.
