Sucre and Maragua crater

Welcome to Sucre, the capital of Bolivia and supposedly the most beautiful city in South America! With statements like the last I'm careful (except that Hannover, of course, "the most beautiful city in the world" is!), Because I lack the comprehensive comparison. But to look beautiful is "the white city" (parallel to Arequipa) in any case.

On city walks, I ran some of the white squares and streets. In addition, the cemetery ... It is buried especially stacked in the air. I have visited the place of the Declaration of Independence, to which, of course, "El Libertador" Simon Bolivar is also paid homage. And I was in a "Chicharia", a real local backyard pub (not visible from the outside, you have to know where they are) where, as iconic as sad, old men spend their alcoholic lives.

Very close to the city is the Maragua crater, which I walked through in two days with the super-charming people Natalie and Marina.
Once again, I was able to enjoy unusual, new landscapes. In addition, I am also pleased that after all the traveling still happens so often! How colorful and partially flowing the landscape is towering around in one .... Gorgeous! In addition a "own house" for our small, quiet little group. Perfect!
Thanks to a confused, old man (everyone else was very friendly), who drove us with massive screaming from our originally planned route, it was on the second day even a small, adventurous cross-country tour.

On the evening of the second day in Sucre on time, I visited the cathedral and the Felipe Neri convent on my way home. My luck: I was alone in the cathedral and that was really a crazy feeling! On the roof of the convent then the evening light and the sunset ... The stay could not have ended better!
