The city is topographically gifted, there are hills everywhere and no matter where you’re coming from, you will always be walking on an incline/decline. Thankfully, La Paz is also home to the largest cable car network in the world: Mi Teleferico consists of 3 lines and 11 stations that each provide sweeping views of the urban environment.
If you decide to brave the hilly streets of the city, make sure you pass by Calle Jaén. This traffic-less street in historic La Paz is a cobble-stoned street with brightly colored facades, containing bars, restaurants, shops, and museums. Better yet, for great views of the city (not in a cable car), head on over to Parque Mirador Laikakota. Here you can also get the best photography spots for capturing Illimani mountain that overlooks the city (Entrance is 3.5 Bolivianos/Adult).
This is a geothermal area located in the Eduardo Avaroa Andean Fauna National Reserve. This seismically active area is ripe with intense volcanic activity containing sulfur springs, mud lakes, and steam pools.
