Ride the world’s highest and longest urban cable car network and stay at design-forward hotels like Atix or the new Altu Qala in the city center. Beyond La Paz, explore the diverse nature reserve in Bolivia’s Madidi National Park—home to 1,250 different bird species. Revel at the globe’s largest salt flats in Uyuni and discover the charming colonial architecture of Sucre. 36
