La Paz

A dramatic high-altitude city in a canyon, stitched together by the world’s highest urban cable-car network.

La Paz spills down a canyon at over 3,600 m, the highest seat of government on Earth, with the peak of Illimani towering behind. The world’s highest and longest urban cable-car network (Mi Teleférico) doubles as the best city tour anywhere.

Markets, street food, and altitude — it’s a sensory jolt of a city.
