Where Should I go: Liverpool or La Paz?
Liverpool
Famous as the hometown of The Beatles, Liverpool is a maritime city on the northwest coast of England. Historically, it was a key port to trade and migration and still plays a major role today, its Pier Head Waterfront being designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2004. Beyond the waterfront, Liverpool is a large vibrant city with a thriving cultural heritage, historic landmarks, and a handful of unique neighborhoods with plenty to see and do.
La Paz
La Paz, the administrative capital of Bolivia, has a breathtaking setting. The city is the highest national capital in the world, with an altitude ranging from about 4,058 m (13,313 ft) above sea level in El Alto, where the airport is located, to 3,100 m (10,170 ft) in the lower residential area. The dynamic and chaotic city was built in a canyon created by the Choqueyapu River. La Paz is now a fusion of architectural styles, cultures and beliefs, welcoming everyday new boutique hotels, modern shops, delicious restaurants and reinventing standing establishments. However, generally speaking, Bolivia remains more a backpacker hit than a mainstream tourist destination.
