Lambaré was officially founded in 1766 by Governor Carlos Morphi, although the region had been inhabited long before by indigenous peoples under the leadership of Chief Lambaré. The city borders the south of Asunción and stretches along the Paraguay River, giving it a strategic and pretty location. One of the most important geographical features is Cerro Lambaré, with a monument at its summit honoring Paraguayan leaders and indigenous history, offering a panoramic view of the region. Lambaré has evolved from a quiet suburb into a dynamic city with significant tourist facilities, such as the exclusive Yacht y Golf Club Paraguayo. The economy is based on a mix of commerce, services, and some industrial plants, while residential areas offer a high quality of life for commuters to the capital. Historically, the city has often been the site of political and social changes closely linked to the development of the nearby capital, Asunción.
