It's better to set a script name and a query string directly in
fastcgi_param to avoid surplus copy operations:

location /wordpress {
    root  /var/www;
    try_files $uri $uri/ @wordpress;
}

location @wordpress {
    ...
    fastcgi_param   SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/wordpress/index.php;
    fastcgi_param   QUERY_STRING    q=$uri&$args;
}
