What does this tell us about Bolivian values and history.

Three famous monuments in Bolivia are Cerro Rico, Lake Titicaca, and Tiwanaku.

Cerro Rico, Potosi: once held the silver that lured Spanish Conquistadors to the world's highest city. It is the perfect destination for those who want to explore the effect that colonization had on the indigenous people of Bolivia. Visitors may tour the mines, although silver is already gone.

Lake Titicaca: bordering Bolivia and Peru, it is the largest lake in South America. Lake Titicaca is a very popular destination for holidays. The original Copacabana is a favorite resort for both tourists and locals.

Tiwanaku: located near the south-eastern shore of Lake Titicaca. It is one of the most important precursors to the Inca Empire. At its peak, the city had between 15.000 and 30.000 inhabitants. Today it is one of the top tourist attractions in Bolivia.
