More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A morning drive from La Paz peels away the coast and drops you into a sun-baked mining town where brick chimneys pierce a wide sky. Visitors step off the van into streets of low stone buildings, the air carrying the scent of fresh coffee and tortillas. The town’s most visible relic, La Ramona, rises like a weathered lighthouse of the silver era — a place that makes the past feel physically present.
