Cochabamba
(pop. 410,000), the nation's third-largest city, is noted
for its shopping, pleasant climate, a good archaeological
museum and the Inca ruins at nearby Incallajta. The cancha,
or
market, in Cochabamba is one of the largest in the country
and is a good place to buy handicrafts. If you are there
on Sunday,
try to find a chicharron -- a cookout where pork is deep fried
in huge vats over open fires and served with potatoes and chicha
(pronounced CHEE-cha), a traditional alcoholic beverage made
from corn. Hostels in Cochabamba |
