	Potatoes Review of La Paz by butimba Advantages: A lively and exciting city Disadvantages: Thieves all over the place La Paz - Bolivia's capital - is an incredibly lively, colourful, bustling city with loads of character. From around 4060m at its highest point to 3100m at its lowest (the better off you are, the lower down you live), the city sprawls across a huge valley ...

	3 days of Somewhere Different Review of La Paz by SusanLydia123 Advantages: Experiencing a different culture Disadvantages: Possibly experiencing high altitude sickness We went to La Paz for 3 days in September 2006. We flew from Buenos Aires and arrived at the airport in La Paz and immediately noticed how different we felt. The air was very thin and we had to slow down. We had been warned to take it easy and providi ...

	Eating llama in a volcano Review of La Paz by Garth87 Advantages: Amazing sights, very cheap, unique city, great shopping Disadvantages: Altitude sickness, hard to get around It's 8am. Heathrow Airport. The traffic means that you've got ten minutes to get to your flight before the gates close.

	Review of Lake Titicaca by Garth87 As you step onto the brightly coloured bus in Bolivia, and stare out the window as it ambles along dusty dirt tracks and winds through mountain passes, you cannot help but wonder what your next destination is going to be like.

	The worlds only hotel made of salt(!) Review of Salar De Uyuni by Garth87 Advantages: Truly breathtaking; some of the best scenery in the world Disadvantages: Hard to get to; gets very cold The Salar de Uyuni is more commonly known as the salt flats or salt pans. Coming to Bolivia, I had heard a little about them, someone likening them to a desert of salt but I wasn't quite sure what to expect. After visiting though its something i would s ...

	Dried Llama Foetus, Anyone??? Review of Witches' Market, La Paz by VC81 Advantages: A unqiue experience of Andean culture Disadvantages: Very much on the tourist trail La Cuidad de Nuestra Señora de la Paz (city of our lady of peace) was founded in 1548 by the Spanish as a centre of power in the Andes. Today the sprawling Bolivian unofficial capital, located down the slopes of a steep canyon framed by snow covered peaks ...

If a little daunting at the start, I found it to be a truly unique, wonderfully eclectic mixture of a city. Great review.

	Bolivia's city in the sky Review of La Paz by bergmcberg Advantages: Unforgettable scenery and people Disadvantages: Very basic living standards Arriving at La Paz by bus is somewhat of a shock to the system. This is in part due to the altitude (particularly if arriving by plane which is meant to be harsher). I am (reasonably) fit, young (25) and healthy, and found it a little difficult and theref ...

	Cross into another world. Review of Salar De Uyuni by petea101 Advantages: Completley unique landscapes Disadvantages: Not the place to go if you suffer from altitude sickness I must confess that Bolivia was a country of which I knew nothing and to be honest I was quite happy living in ignorance. This has all changed, as during an 8-month travelling trip, I was fortunate enough to visit this beautiful country. Originally I wa ...

	The hidden delights of Cochabamba Review of Cochabamba by jfsalazar Advantages: Beautiful climate Disadvantages: not many obvious attractions I have lived in Cochabamba for three and a half years in total, and would love to recommend it as an excellent all-round place to visit.

	Somewhere that will be exploited soon Review of Lake Titicaca by beatlemanic Advantages: Remote Beauty Disadvantages: Risk of sunburn Lake Titicaca spans the border between Peru and Bolivia and is one of (if not the) highest navigable lakes in the world at altitude 4600m (approx).

	Visit, enjoy, but don't tell anyone else Review of Sorata by beatlemanic Advantages: A beautiful, remote location for someone who likes to get off the beaten track Disadvantages: Not for luxury seekers! Sorata is often described as Bolivia's "hidden gem", a kind of "beach" for South America. It's certainly hidden and it's certainly beautiful, but those seeking idyll may be disappointed. To get to Sorata from La Paz you have to negotiate a perilous mo ...
