Parque Bolívar
Parque Libertador Simón Bolívar
A tree-lined park north of the city, with a triumphal-style arch and a mini Eiffel Tower replica, backed by the French-style Supreme Court building.
The park was built in the early 20th century. It contains a small replica of the Eiffel Tower (said to have been designed by Eiffel's studio), a triumphal-arch-style entrance and a musical fountain. On its north side it faces the French-style palace that houses Bolivia's Supreme Court. Shaded paths are lined with small stalls and playground equipment, and locals come here to stroll on weekends. Admission is free. It is about a 10-minute walk from the main square.
