Paraguay - beauty and bottle dancing

The Paraguay Pavilion at Manitoba's Folklorama shows what the community who have come to Winnipeg from Paraguay can do.

The dance costumes are outstanding (top photo). A huge woven table cloth in the cultural display is awesome (second photo). The dancing begins with a storyline of the railway running through Paraguay about 150 years ago (third photo)

The show includes fine examples of bottle dancing (fourth photo) including a dancer who danced with a remarkable 12 bottles on her head (bottom two photos).
