Bolivian Holidays

Bolivian Holidays are a central part of life in Bolivia, home to some of the most sacred shrines and a large population of descendants of the Inca. 70% of the population still lives according to traditional ways, so this is a place that is alive with festival and ceremony.

Bolivian cuisine

Bolivian cuisine stems mainly from the combination of Spanish cuisine with traditional Indigenous Aymara ingredients, with later influences from Argentinians, Germans, Italians, Basques, Russians, Poles, and Arabs due to the arrival of immigrants from those countries. The three traditional staples of Bolivian cuisine are corn, potatoes, and beans. These ingredients have been combined with a number of staples brought by the Spanish, such as rice, wheat, and meat, including beef, pork, and chicken.
