Carnaval time in Bolivia is marked by parades, folkloric characters and dances, beer and chichi, water games, and festive crowds. The flavor changes with the location, however: there’s the Carnaval de Antaño (Carnival of Yesteryear) in Sucre, which recreates the colonial and republican era, and the Carnaval Grande in the same town; there’s the Carnaval Minero (Miners’ Carnival) in Potosí, and the Carnaval Paceño (La Paz Carnival), where one must continually duck water and foam attacks while watching the endless lines of dancers. Which is the most famous of the Bolivian Carnavals? The Oruro Carnaval is known worldwide, and was declared by UNESCO a Masterpiece of Oral & Intangible Heritage of Humanity for its impressive mix of religious Spanish and indigenous Andean traditions.
