Mirador Killi Killi
A lookout on a hill northeast of the city centre, offering 360-degree views over the bowl-shaped canyon city and the Illimani snow peak.
Mirador Killi Killi sits on a hill northeast of the old town and is the most convenient panoramic viewpoint in the city centre. The bowl-shaped city of La Paz, the edge of the El Alto plateau and, on clear days, the Illimani snow peak are all in view. In the evening, city lights spread from the valley floor up the slopes, a spectacular sight. In 1781, during Túpac Katari's siege of the city, this hill was a stronghold of the indigenous forces. A taxi from the centre takes about 10 minutes, while walking uphill is hard at high altitude. Entry is free; after dark, take a taxi both ways and mind your personal safety.
