In evidenza
We'll take a walk through the city while describing the people of La Paz, the sociocultural context, Aymara culture, customs, and the consolidation of the chola (woman in a skirt) as a symbol of identity. We'll move to the Las Velas food hall, where the cholas prepare anticuchos (beef heart grills) until dawn. We'll then use private transportation to continue by cable car to the city of El Alto, where we'll try a typical linseed drink (a boiled infusion of linseed). Once again, we'll take the cable car to a quieter neighborhood (Sopocachi) and walk to one of the best viewpoints in La Paz, where we'll drink El Inca beer (the national drink made from barley), toast Pachamama (a traditional ritual of respect for this Andean deity), take photos of the La Paz nightscape, and give a talk about national literature and listen to a sample of Bolivian music.

Itinerario
We'll stroll through the streets and chaos of La Paz and stop at "Las Velas," a market with over forty years of tradition. It's the food market that every La Paz resident has visited at least once. "Las Velas" is a historic site, and in its shops, cooks have fed soccer players, businessmen, renowned national artists, and former presidents, among many others. Its architecture, design, and organization express the La Paz identity. Here, travelers will try a delicious typical dish of Bolivian cuisine: The Anticucho.
We will visit El Montículo, a splendid viewpoint about which the poet from La Paz, Jaime Saenz, wrote: "El Montículo, with all its charm and tradition, is the hallmark of the Sopocachi area. And curiously, the topography of the city is reproduced here, in small scale of course, with a fidelity that surprises and disconcerts" (1980). At El Montículo, travelers will have a magical night session to enjoy the art (music and literature) of La Paz.
Mi Teleférico is an iconic tourist attraction that allows travelers to observe the entire city from above. Travelers will join us on a typical tour of this means of public transportation while we discuss the unique geography of La Paz. At one of Mi Teleférico's stops, we will share one of the most delicious Bolivian pastries: cheese jawitas.
El Alto is the twin city of La Paz. On the tour, we'll interact with its inhabitants and their customs to learn more about Bolivia's native cultures (Aymara and Quechua). We'll also take advantage of the scenery to take some photos and enjoy a traditional hot drink from El Alto.

About La Paz
La Paz is Bolivia's seat of government, a high-altitude city in a canyon below Illimani, linked by cable car and known for its markets.
La Paz fills a steep canyon on the Altiplano, between roughly 3,200 and 4,000 metres above sea level, with the snowy peak of Illimani standing over its southern edge. Sucre is the constitutional capital, but the government sits here. Plaza Murillo holds the cathedral and the presidential palace, and nearby Calle Jaén keeps colonial houses and small museums.
Top-ranked sights in La Paz: San Francisco Church, Plaza Murillo, Witches' Market (Mercado de las Brujas).
