Surrounded by snow-capped peaks of the Andean Plateau, Nuestra Señora de La Paz (Our Lady of Peace), known simply as La Paz, is the third largest city in Bolivia, with a population of 2.3 million in its greater metropolitan area. La Paz is a dusty and colorful chaos of crowded streets, competing aromas, and haphazard growth.
