Mercado de Hechiceria
posted by jpfeifer The Mercado de Hechiceria is the witches market of La Paz. Its an utterly bizarre experience and really has to be seen to be believed. You can by all sorts of talismans, potions and dried animals. A popular item is the dried Llama foetus which wards off evil spirits! |
La Paz in Bolivia is the highest capital in the world and it should also rank highest on your list of places to visit for its amazingly preserved colonial architecture and stunning views over the surrounding valleys. La Paz car hire firms operate both in the city itself and in El Alto, the area where your cheap flights to La Paz will land. Car hire from La Paz Airport is available and it's best to book in advance to get the best prices. However, if you plan to settle into one of the La Paz hotels first then cheap La Paz car hire is available from many local and international vendors in the city. Visiting La Paz requires a visit to one of the many markets selling traditional wares to locals and tourists alike so visit Sagarnaga Street or if you dare go to the Witches' market for dried frogs and llama foetuses! Take a tour of the museums of La Paz, from the Museum of Precious Metals to the Coca Museum. Make sure you visit the various viewing points to see the city itself from above, which gives you an idea of what a miracle building a city this high really is.Hiring a car in La Paz
