Information about Bolivia
Bolivia is simultaneously the coldest, warmest, windiest and steamiest place on Earth. Although the country is relatively poor, it is one of the richest in terms of natural resources. While most travelers stick to the popular well-worn paths of Altiplano, there are plenty to be found in the tropical east and the lowland regions in the south. Visit the symbolic heart of the nation, Sucre, which is one of the most charming cities in Bolivia with whitewashed buildings and beautiful, sheltered patios.
