One of the popular attractions of Bolivia is the Lake Titicaca located in La Paz. The lake is regarded as the highest lake with a depth of 12, 580ft and which covers 3,861 square miles. Around the lake there are two major islands, the Islas del Sol and Isla de la Luna, which are in high regard as they are the mythical sites of the creation of the Inca people.
In Sala de Uyumi, there are plenty of other marvellous sites such as the Laguna Colorada and Laguna Verde. There is also Bolivia's famous museum, the Casa Real De Moneda. Aside from silver coins, they also display restored presses and wooden minting machines, coins and coin stamps and religious art.
Many people forget about Bolivia when they're thinking of about South America travel destinations. If you're coming from Peru, you might come across to Bolivia via Lake Titicaca, the famous lake that that is shared by the two countries. The main lake-side city in the Bolivian side is Copacabana, which sits at an elevation of 1,2470 feet above sea level. Copacabana is about a four hour bus ride from La Paz, the capital city of Bolivia.
La Paz is the world's highest (in terms of altitude) capital city in the world. Actually, it is the "de facto" capital, constitutionally, Sucre is the official capital city of Bolivia. A great day trip from La Paz is the Moon Valley (called Valle de la Luna in Spanish). One of the top attractions in Bolivia is the salt flats, called Salar de Uyuni, in the southern altiplano of Bolivia. La Paz is the place to come, being nestled in the Bolivian Andean mountain range La Paz in the highest city in world.
The town's biggest tourist attraction is its easy pace, which allows plenty of time for swimming, sunbathing, and catnaps. Northeast of Lake Titicaca and four hours from La Paz is the gorgeous mountain town of Sorata.
