Bolivia is filled with rich history, beautiful culture, and lush, thick ecosystems. My point? There’s something for everyone there, and since the military is about as diverse as the great country it serves, Bolivia is a great military travel destination.
That’s what I try to focus on when I’m writing about travel. Exchange USA makes it a point to let all of our military men and women know that, regardless of their personalities, we have what they want. And with Exchange USA’s military travel assistance program on MyMilitaryravel.com, active duty service personnel can go anywhere they want during their RNR time.
Yes, anywhere. So that said, why Bolivia? Well, in case you’re conflicted, Google these great attractions in Bolivia. They’re sure to help you make up your mind:
- La Paz – in terms of elevation, it’s the highest capital city in the world
- Sorata – the most famous base camp for Cordillera Real extreme mountain climbers
- Yungas Road – the most dangerous road in the world… unless you’re on a mountain bike… or a donkey
- Madidi National Park – one of the most biodiverse places on Earth. A massive nature park, it covers over 7,000 square miles of Bolivian rainforest and is home of over 1,000 species
- Potosi – the highest city in the world… so they say…
- Sucre – very well-to-do Spanish colonial city, home to Simon Bolivar, and the origin of the Bolivian Constitution
- Oruro – hosting the annual Carnaval de Oruro, which features over 38,000 performers, musicians, and dancers
