Mysterious La Paz. Bolivia and its secrets

The city of La Paz can be considered an amazing and truly enchanting corner of our planet. Bolivia (the country in which it is located) has many secrets in its territories that have been going to us since the pre-Columbian era. The innovations brought here by the Spanish invaders assimilated with the local culture, and appear before us in the form of a city living at the mouth of a dried river. This is the place where probably the largest number of magicians and sorcerers lives in the world, this is a wonderful natural phenomenon that combines foothills, a very unusual climate and cool waters of the lake - all this fits in itself and its environs La Paz.

Bolivia on the map is located between Peru and Brazil and against the background of these vast powers looks very modest and attracts few tourists. This is primarily due to the fact that the temperatures here are not too high, it rains quite often, and there is no access to the sea. However, such a phenomenon is perfectly compensated by such natural resources as Lake Titicaca, which is located at the foot of the Andes Mountains, of incomparable beauty. By car, you can get to this water expanse in a couple of hours. You can get there by minibus, which starts from the bus station in La Paz.

Bolivia, as mentioned above, is famous for its ancient secrets, many of which are rooted in the depths of centuries. Any traveler can open the veils of some of them at the Witch Market, which is located in the center of the capital. Dried frogs, snake eyes, and various herbs that are needed in making potions are sold there. However, if you decide to seriously engage in magic, you should carefully study the history of this country, as well as establish contacts with local residents. They will be able to give you the necessary advice in this matter. It should be noted that most sorcerers live outside the city of La Paz.

Bolivia (the photo you see in the article) is a country with a very chilly and humid climate, due to its proximity to the mountains and the ocean. Almost every day there is heavy rains, and even if the sun will delight you during the day, then at night you will feel noticeable coolness. Therefore, going there, be sure to take with you more warm clothes and even autumn boots, because you certainly never know what other natural whims La Paz will surprise you with. Bolivia, like no other southern country, is so volatile.

This city was once a Spanish colony, so many temples and houses that were built by Europeans remained on its streets. Jaen Avenue is filled with such buildings, where the Spanish nobility built estates for themselves. Murillo Square is home to the 19th-century Cathedral, the Palace of Justice, the Presidential Palace and the Parliament Building of La Paz. From a political point of view, Bolivia is a modern and developed state, however, it still honors and protects the traditions of its Inca ancestors.

In conclusion, it should be noted that the most fun national place in La Paz are local music clubs - β€œstumps”. They gather in them to listen to live music and dance, as once the aborigines of South America did .
