Illimani, La Paz, Bolivia



Illimani is the highest mountain in the Cordillera Real (part of the Cordillera Oriental, a subrange of the Andes) of western Bolivia. It lies just south of La Paz at the eastern edge of the Altiplano. It is the second highest peak in Bolivia, after Nevado Sajama, and the eighteenth highest peak in South America.

My friend Ryu from Japan sent me this postcard during his trip to South America. He sent it from Ecuador.

Thank you vey much Ryu!

Illimani es la montaña más alta de la Cordillera Real (parte de la Cordillera Oriental, que se desprende de los Andes) en el occidente de Bolivia. Se ubica al sur de La Paz en el extremo oriente del Altiplano. Es el segundo pico más alto de Bolivia, después del Nevado Sajama, y el dieciochoavo pico más alto de Sudamérica.

Mi amigo Ryu de Japón me envió esta postal durante su viaje a Sudamérica. La envió desde Ecuador.

¡Muchas gracias Ryu!

  2. I waited about a month for this one, but that's sadly normal in Mexico :(
