Description
La Paz is one of the most important departments in Bolivia, located in the western part of the country, in the Andes, near the border with Peru. It is a region with a unique geography, which includes both high mountain areas (including the Altiplano) and lowland areas along the Beni River. La Paz is also known for its dramatic landscapes, including Lake Titicaca, the world's highest navigable lake, which lies on the border with Peru.
The department's capital is La Paz, one of the highest cities in the world (approximately 3,650 m above sea level), and the seat of the Bolivian government, although the official capital is Sucre. The La Paz region is a dynamic political, cultural and economic center, and its inhabitants speak mainly Spanish and indigenous languages such as Aymara.
La Paz is also a region of great tourist interest, with attractions such as the Island of the Sun on Lake Titicaca, the ruins of Tiwanaku (an ancient Andean civilization), and magnificent mountain landscapes, including Huascarán, the highest peak in Bolivia. The region is also home to the Madidi National Park, which protects some of the most diverse ecosystems in the world.
