Nestled high in the Andes mountains, La Paz is a city of unique charms and breathtaking scenery. This Bolivian capital city is not only rich in cultural heritage but also offers an array of adventures for the intrepid traveler. Whether one is seeking historical knowledge or the rush of adrenaline, La Paz does not disappoint. Below are some of the very best places to enrich your travel itinerary, and should you wish to delve deeply into what this city offers, our company Happytripz is here to provide you with unforgettable excursions.

  • Valle de la Luna (Moon Valley)
    Unlike any other landscape, Valle de la Luna truly transports you to another world. The area's stunning clay formations, created by erosion over centuries, resemble the lunar surface, hence its name. Its peculiar and almost eerie beauty makes it a must-visit. This geological wonder is located just a short drive from the city center and can easily be explored by foot. Find Valle de la Luna here.
  • Witches' Market (Mercado de las Brujas)
    The Witches’ Market offers an intriguing insight into Andean traditions and mystic practices. It’s an unusual sight; vendors sell an assortment of herbs, remedies, and even dried llama fetuses traditionally used in Bolivian rituals. A stroll here shows a side of La Paz that thrives on ancient beliefs blending in with daily life. Learn more about the Witches' Market.
  • Calle Jaén
    This enchanting street is a well-preserved colonial gem with some of the best museums in La Paz. The colorful buildings and cobblestone road create a magical atmosphere. Located here are several small museums, art galleries, and cafes worth exploring as you take a step back in time.
  • San Francisco Church
    The San Francisco Church, with its blend of colonial and indigenous architectural styles, stands as a monument of Bolivian history and culture. The church plaza is a vibrant meeting place where tourists and locals alike come to gaze at the intricate façade and enjoy the urban buzz of the city. The church and its adjoining museum are well worth the visit. Check out San Francisco Church location.
  • Chacaltaya Ski Resort
    Once the world’s highest ski resort, the glacier has now sadly receded, but Chacaltaya boasts stunning views of the surrounding Andes and serves as a primo spot for high-elevation trekking. A journey here is a journey to the skies, as you'll be over 5,300 meters above sea level.
  • Mirador Killi Killi
    For one of the best panoramic views in La Paz, the lookout point of Mirador Killi Killi is unmissable. Happytripz recommends a visit during sunrise or sunset to capture La Paz in its full splendor, as the city lights begin to twinkle like a starry sky below.
  • Mi Teleférico
    La Paz’s public cable car system, Mi Teleférico, is itself an attraction providing an unrivaled view of the cityscape. Hop on this urban gondola for a scenic and convenient way to explore various parts of the city from the sky.
