La Paz and its region

La Paz, the highest political capital of the world, culminated at 3400m height, is located in a particularly rich geographical region. Ranging on several steps, surprising by its contrasts, in the middle of the Royal Cordillera, the city and its region do not let anybody indifferent. A city with slice and dice colors, variegated like few others on Earth, noisy and vibrant, this is disorientation on its own. Many activities will make you appreciate your stay in the city; museums, cult places and restaurants located in Socopachi district, and traditional peñas, which are probably the best way to be impregnated in and by the local atmosphere. The city of La Paz stands between 3200 and 4000 meters above sea level. It enjoys an ideal geographical localization, at only one hour driving from Titicaca Lake, three hours from Yungas Valleys passing thought the “death road” and at about one hour from the majestic Royal Cordillera. Its natural landscape is a striking beauty; the city is literally surrounded by snowy and cloudy peaks, big plains extending endlessly and, at this altitude, we almost could touch some stars.
