La Paz

Near the moon Valey

Many tourists that visit La Paz have the impression that La Paz is just a huge market. This happens since most of the hostels are concentrated in the area of the market, and the market being indeed a huge one - the biggest I've been in, spanning a few zones of the city.
But the truth is that La Paz has many faces, like the fancy Zona Sur, where the richest people of Bolivia live, and the moon valley area where some nice views can be seen.

I did allot of shopping in La Paz, as well as Quad riding which was fun. While driving fast on a Quad, one can get a feeling of incredible freedom.
