  • The gondola takes off from the station and we slowly soar up through the sky. The urban scene that unfolds in La Paz, Bolivia is unlike anything I’ve seen during my vast travels across the globe and I’m filled with an unexpected tingle of delight at the beauty before me. From looming heights, I sail above the city, a sea of terracotta buildings lays below, colorful bricks bathed in bright light from the crisp blue skies and fresh mountain air. In the distance, the white peaks of the Andes glow. La Paz sits at an elevation of 12,000 feet, earning it the distinction of the highest city in the world, set in the highest and most isolated country in South America - Bolivia. In addition to the dizzying heights that cause many visitors to experience altitude sickness, the city of nearly one million residents has extremely unique - and challenging - topography. Built in a canyon, the city of La Paz is carved into ascending mountain terrain that climbs 1,650 feet to the neighboring city of El Alto.
