La Paz is unique in that it is built on a 1 km (0.6 miles) elevation difference, ranging from 3,200 to 4,200 metres (10,498 - 13,779 feet) above sea level. There’s no point hiding it: nothing here is quite the same as anywhere else. A particular fervour regularly grips this indigenous land, which is constantly stirring to assert its rights. To make the most of your stay in La Paz, start with the old colonial city, its squares and palaces, then take a stroll through its indigenous markets. On the way to Lake Titicaca, the pre-Inca site of Tiahuanaco and its Puerta del Sol are absolute must-sees. In the heart of Lake Titicaca, Copacabana is an important pilgrimage centre in Bolivia, where the “Virgen Morena de Copacabana” is venerated. You can even have your car blessed there on Sundays…
