Bolivia is a land where indigenous people in traditional dress, city folk and women in bowler hats and multiple skirts, walk side by side in a cosmopolitan setting surrounded by the glimmering snow-capped peaks of towering volcanoes.
Beyond La Paz, we find a landlocked, introverted country, where memories of a turbulent history are visible in the colonial town of Sucre and the mining village of Potosi. Beauty here ranges from the melodious sound of panpipes floating through the still air of Andean villages on the shores of Lake Titicaca to the unearthly, eerie and breathtaking landscape of the Uyuni Salt Flats; or the market town of Tarabuco where people barter potatoes for coca leaves, chewed by the superstitious miners of Cerro Rico.
