About La Paz
La Paz clings to a 13,615-foot bowl in the Andes, its chaotic sprawl of colonial churches, street markets, and cable cars connecting valleys stacked thousands of feet apart. The Teleférico provides dizzying rides over the city's rim, while Witches' Markets sell condor fetuses and love potions to the faithful. Illimani's snow-capped peak towers above the urban madness.
