The guide
Bolivia, city by city
Cidade Turismo is a travel guide built city by city, now also in Bolivia. For each place you'll find things to do, attractions with their own page, when to go and how to get there.
The guide has three ways in, so you can start wherever you like: routes, which link towns along one journey; destinations, which are the tourist regions; and the departments, with the main cities in each one.
The texts are written from official tourism sources, such as national and regional tourism offices, national parks and city halls, and new cities and routes keep being added to the guide.

It was founded at the end of the 19th century as a railway junction and today lives off tourism: it is the base for agencies that take visitors to the salar in 4x4 vehicles. It has wide streets, Plaza Arce with the clock tower and, in the surroundings, the Train Cemetery and the village of Colchani.

Seat of the Bolivian government, La Paz sits in an Andean canyon with the city center at about 3,600 meters and the snow-capped Illimani in the background. The colonial center has Plaza Murillo, Calle Jaén and the Basílica de San Francisco, and Mi Teleférico links the neighborhoods to El Alto on the Altiplano. From here you can take trips to Tiwanaku, Valle de la Luna and Copacabana on Lake Titicaca.
