We'll take a walk through the city while describing the people of La Paz, the sociocultural context, Aymara culture, customs, and the consolidation of the chola (woman in a skirt) as a symbol of identity. We'll move to the Las Velas food hall, where the cholas prepare anticuchos (beef heart grills) until dawn. We'll then use private transportation to continue by cable car to the city of El Alto, where we'll try a typical linseed drink (a boiled infusion of linseed). Once again, we'll take the cable car to a quieter neighborhood (Sopocachi) and walk to one of the best viewpoints in La Paz, where we'll drink El Inca beer (the national drink made from barley), toast Pachamama (a traditional ritual of respect for this Andean deity), take photos of the La Paz nightscape, and give a talk about national literature and listen to a sample of Bolivian music.
