Bolivia is an old land with sites such as Tiwanaku dating back possibly as far as 1500 B.C. The area has been controlled by groups such as the Aymarans, the Incas and the Spanish before eventually reaching independence and nation status in 1825. This long and colorful history is told in the various museums, ruins and monuments found throughout the country. The monuments, in particular, serve as larger-than-life reminders of the people and events that have shaped Bolivian history.
If you are traveling to the South American country of Bolivia, you will find that it is surrounded by tropical rain forests to the east and high mountains to the west. Both sides of the landlocked country are surrounded by historic monuments that date back to the Incan Empire.
Known as the "City of Eternal Spring," Cochabamba offers something for everyone. Cochabamba is often referred to by locals as Chocabambinos. It is the third largest city in Bolivia.
Bolivia is a country diverse in climate, ecology and culture, which can make choosing how to dress a bit difficult. What you choose to wear may change day by day, as you travel from city to pueblo, highland to jungle, so preparing ahead of time is essential. While you can buy just about any form of clothing while traveling, proper planning can save you time, frustration and money.
