National Military History Museum
Museo Histórico Militar de la Nación
The military museum has a big collection of Bolivian and international weaponry. It is really interesting if you know a thing or two about weapons and if you can understand some Spanish. They do not offer guided tours. In their collection they have a jet engine, airplanes, miniatures, typewriters, a parachute, engines, all sorts of artillery including very rare ones. They also have a room dedicated to their combat history. During the Pacific war, Bolivia lost its access to the Pacific Ocean. In the last room, you will find a roll with thousands of letters from children asking their sea back.

In the courtyard of the Alliance Francaise. Good French inspired food but using local ingredients and wine. Good continental breakfast at Bs. 20, but the place was rarely found open in the morning. Set menu for Bs. 45, from 12:00-15:00.
