Bolivia stretches from the Salar de Uyuni's mirror surface across the Andes to La Paz at 3,650m and the Yungas' cloud forest, with Lake Titicaca's pre-Columbian island terraces shared with Peru.

When to Visit
May-Oct
Dry season with crystal Andean light, Salar de Uyuni at its driest for vehicle crossings, and La Paz cable car views at peak clarity.
Jan-Mar
Wet season transforms Uyuni into the world's largest mirror, but unpaved tracks become unreliable. Carnival fills La Paz and Oruro with parades.
Apr
Rainy season ending, Uyuni mirror still active in early month, and Cochabamba valleys at peak greenery before dry-season dust.
Nov-Dec
Pre-rainy season, Lake Titicaca still pleasant for island visits, and Sucre's white colonial centre dries out for outdoor exploration.
