Big city. More than two million people living here. As I normally don&#8217;t like big cities I was skeptical. However, it was totally different this time. I instantly felt at ease. The city has an amazing atmosphere and people here are very friendly. And the town is more clean than other cities in South America. Don&#8217;t know why&#8230; The location of La Paz is great, too. At 3600 meters above see level it&#8217;s center is build in a canyon and the surrounding hills are plastered by housings. There are a lot of different markets to visit, which <strong>Kevin (thanks for the great company!)<\/strong> and I did. We also enjoyed good food. If you ever go to La Paz, try Salte\u00f1as. Delicious!<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know why, but I loved the city and would return anytime!<br \/>\nPeaceful greetings<br \/>\nMichael<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1554
