Bolivia celebrates its independence day on August 6 with many Bolivians flocking to Sucre where the declaration was signed. Enjoy the party and explore the pretty town then move on to visit the strange and ethereal salt flats of Uyuni to change your perspective by taking a few of the famous perspective photos. Take a tour over the altiplano and across the Uyuni Salt Flats see the different coloured lakes and its wildlife and stay in a hotel made of salt.
