Around Tobatí, you can explore interesting places such as the famous church of Tobatí, known for its architecture and sacred art, or visit the craft workshops where ceramics and wood carvings are made. The city of Caacupé, with its important Basilica, is also relatively nearby and is a popular destination.

Also, take your time reading the descriptions of the objects, and do not hesitate to ask the staff if you have any questions about local history.
