La Paz—What secrets does a city that uses cable cars as public transport hold?

La Paz is the administrative capital of Bolivia and the highest capital city in the world. It has a rugged terrain, unique eroded earthen forests, and a rich cultural landscape. Here are some recommended attractions and activities: ✅ Murillo Square: Located in the city center, the square features a bronze statue of Pedro Domingo Murillo, a pioneer of South American independence. Surrounded by government agencies and the Congress building, it's a great place to learn about local history and culture. 🚡 Cable Car System: La Paz's cable car system is the primary mode of transportation and a unique sightseeing method. We recommend taking the Red, Yellow, Orange, and Purple lines for a bird's-eye view of the city. Moon Valley: Famous for its peculiar sand and rock forest landscape. You can take a taxi after riding the Green Line cable car, or take a collectivo bus on Av Mexico. 🛍️ Witches' Market: Sells specialty goods such as herbs, minerals, and alpaca wool products. It's a great place to buy souvenirs. Cholitas Wrestling: Performances are held every Thursday and Sunday, offering a unique way to experience the local culture. Tiwanaku Park and San Francisco Cathedral: Historical and cultural attractions worth visiting. 🚡 Transportation La Paz's cable car system has extensive coverage and is a convenient way to explore the city. To get to Moon Valley, you can choose to take a bus or a taxi. It is recommended to book a taxi in advance from the airport to the city center, which costs about BOB 80. 🏨 Accommodation It is recommended to stay near Universidad, which is close to the tourist area and quiet. 🍜 Food Salteñas: Similar to paninis, filled with meat, vegetables, and a sweet broth, these are very popular savory pastries in Bolivia. Humintas: Made from cornmeal and cheese, they are simple and delicious. Anticucho de Carne de Cordero: A common street food, these are flavorful and spicy lamb skewers. La Paz is not just a transit point to the "Salt Flats"; its unique urban landscape and rich cultural experiences make it a destination worth exploring.
