It's a relatively new neighbourhood with a population of 8,348 people,[1] and provides one of the biggest green areas in Asunción.
This is because the largest horse racetrack in Paraguay, the Hipódromo de Asunción, lies within this barrio.
The name of the streets generally carry the name of characteristic trees from the Paraguayan countryside (such as Yvyrapytá, Quebracho and Paraíso) or the name of native tribes of South America (Carios, Guaraníes and Incas).
This barrio is home to a large number of open areas of recreational uses, such as small parks and plazas.
The village was built in the early 1970s, when then President Alfredo Stroessner recognized the merit of the players by building them houses.
