Located in the center of Bolivia in a valley bearing the same name in the Andes Mountains, Cochabamba is the third largest city in the country and the highest capital city in the world with the highest golf course and the highest airport. Featuring a climate that is like spring all year round, visitors can stroll around the quiet plazas and travel to nearby valleys and towns without worrying about the heat. Those who are interested in spiritual things should pay a visit to the Cristo de la Concordia, the largest statue of Jesus in the world, while those who like to see how the other half lives can visit the Centro Simón I Patiño/Palacio Portales to experience the shear opulence of the mansion along with the Japanese gardens and cultural center.
