La Paz

 

La Paz at over 3500m and a home to over 1 million Bolivians has usurped most govermental power in Bolivia and is not the de facto capital.  A gateway to everycity and wonder in Bolivia, La Paz is truly a amazing city.  La Paz was founded on Oct 20th 1548 by Captin Alonzo de Mendoza

 

   I spent a lot of time in La Paz, I have family in the city and love to spend time with them.  We go site seeing, take walks to the "Valley of the Moon", or shopping downtown, or hit the local clubs for a night of dancing.
