La Paz (Bolivia), city in western Bolivia, located on the La
Paz River. La Paz is Bolivia's largest city, as well as the country's
administrative capital and the capital of La Paz Department. The city sits
amid the Andes Mountains and is about 3625 m (about 11,900 ft) above sea
level, making it the highest large city in the world. La Paz is linked by
railroads and highways to cities in Peru and Argentina and to Arica, Chile,
the nearest port on the Pacific Ocean. It also has an international airport.
It is also the site of
the University of San Andrés (1830), the Catholic Bolivian University (1966),
the National Museum, the presidential and legislative palaces, and a cathedral
(completed in 1933) with a capacity of 12,000. La Paz was founded by the
Spanish in 1548. It flourished because of its strategic location on the trade
route between the Bolivian silver mines and the ocean.
Population (1993 estimate) 784,976.

Hello all the folks at Peru Gateway Travel,
We had a fantastic time in Peru. We thank you all for making
our trip a success.
The only concern is that the accommodation in Cusco was below
average and we would not recommend the Emparada Plaza (?) to
anyone. Even though the staff was good, the room/bathroom,
breakfast was very bad.
Once again, thanks a lot for making our trip to your country a
memorable one. All the guides, especially Guillarmo in Lima
and Erica in Cusco, were excellent.

We arrived home at 4 o'clock in the
morning, very tired (we had a long lay-over in Amsterdam) but very
very happy. I am so pleased to tell you that our Peru vacation that
you planned for us was excellent! Everything was just as the
itinerary said it would be. We were very pleased with the hotels,
and the transfer people and guides were always there and everybody
was so nice and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about your very
exciting country and its history, particularly about the Quechua
culture. We will always remember the Inti Raymi festival in Cusco. I
am so glad we were able to see that. Of course Machu Picchu was also
a great highlight. And, Michael and I also very much liked Arequipa.
We didn't know much about that city, but we had a very great time
there on our free day and visited the cathedral, spent a lot of time
going through the Santa Catalina monastario and, of course, went to
the museum to see "Juanita". Beautiful architecture there too.
Really, every day was wonderful, and we would like to thank you so
much for all your efforts. Also please extend our thanks to Maria
Carmen who was so helpful on the phone and to Julia, who came to the
hotel our first night to explain many things to us and give us all
our tickets and vouchers. And perhaps you also had something to do
with our last night in Lima at the Libertador. We got a suite -- a
very big beautiful room! Thank you so much.
We wish you and your family all the best, and for sure we will be
recommending Peru Gateway Travel to our friends.
