Lonely Planet - Destination Paraguay - These pages define tranquilo as a "state of mind that lulls you into a cheery, relaxed peace." Maybe tranquilo is found in the Chaco. The Chaco is one of South America's great wilderness areas and makes up 60 percent of Paraguay's landscape. In it live Indian peoples who trace their ancestry back to the 1500s. Animal life abounds: jaguar, puma, ocelot, and other wildlife. It hasn't always been cheery in Paraguay, though. Years of dictatorship and isolation are only recently giving way to brighter days.
