La Paz

La Paz is a city like no other, nestled in a deep valley surrounded by the towering peaks of the Andes Mountains. As the world’s highest capital city, sitting at over 3,600 meters (11,800 feet) above sea level, it offers dramatic views, with the city’s colorful buildings sprawling up the mountainside. The contrast of urban life against such an awe-inspiring natural backdrop creates a sense of being both grounded and on top of the world.
