Bolivia has many "best of the world". It is the highest, most isolated and rugged country in the world, as well as the coldest, warmest, windiest and foggy place on earth. So, in the world's highest capital, La Paz, like other cities in the world, is busy with traffic. As night falls, cars struggle to move forward in traffic jams, and the great drop in altitude in La Paz brings trouble for Turtle's cars to go up and down the hill. but there is a beautiful night view that other cities do not have, the salt marsh is a large area of land covered with salt and minerals. When the evaporation of pool water and lake water is greater than the precipitation, the minerals in the water will precipitate and salt flats will appear. Over thousands of years, these minerals have accumulated, and the desert has become the largest mirror on earth. This is the sky. Bolivia, the Uyuni salt marsh in southwestern Bolivia, is a landlocked country in South America, the only country in South America without a coastline, and the poorest country in South America, not one of them-- so, for those of you who want to come to Bolivia, there are no five-star hotels, no luxurious gourmet meals, not to mention fluent Chinese tour guides. If you want to see the luxurious six-star scenery, be prepared to bear hardships!

Although Bolivia is rich in mineral resources-the world's largest lithium mine is found here, the country has been bullied for historical reasons, from the Inca empire to Spanish colonists and now its rising neighbors. The history and genes of a country determine the minds of the people who live here. This is the only country that restricts access to McDonald's and KFC, a country where tourist visas are extremely difficult, and where it is difficult to move without speaking Spanish.

Gao Xiaosong said in Xiao Shuo: "God is fair. When he gives the people of this country a free and lazy personality, he also opens another door to bring beautiful scenery and endless resources to this place." Bolivia is such a country with poor people but beautiful scenery and rich resources.

Bolivia is 1/3 of the Andean mountains, rugged terrain, mainly road transport, accounting for more than 85% of transportation. The main railway and road networks are concentrated in the west, and remote areas rely on air communication. But road coverage is the lowest in South America. And there is also the Ronggas Highway, the world's first insurance road known as the "road of death". There is no developed economy here, and it is one of the poorest countries in South America. However, with its beautiful lake scenery and unique scenery of the Andes, the Uyuni Salt Lake, known as the Mirror of the Sky, is a wonder of the world.

We know that Arabica coffee cannot be grown in cold places above 2000 meters above sea level. if the altitude is too high, coffee trees will frost because the temperature is too low. So Bolivian coffee is mainly grown in the Yungas region northeast of La Paz. It borders the Amazon basin and is about 1500-2500 meters above sea level with an average annual temperature of about 10-15 ℃. Therefore, it ensures the suitable temperature for the growth of coffee and protects the coffee plant from frost. In addition, the Bolivian coffee growing area has a distinct dry and wet season and fertile soil, which is a paradise for the development of boutique coffee. Bolivian coffee is usually picked by hand and is mostly processed by washing.

The early Bolivian coffee was of low quality and the market was very poor. Usually the picked coffee fruit is bumped all the way to the processing plant after a simple peeling treatment. Due to the imperfect infrastructure, the traffic is underdeveloped. Coffee farmers have to overcome the rugged mountain road and transport the beans to the higher altitude area of La Paz for washing. If the coffee fruit is not delivered to the processing plant in time, it is easy to ferment and rot on the wet mountain road. As a result, the coffee of good quality has been destroyed.

Bolivia has made a lot of efforts to improve the quality of coffee, stimulate the enthusiasm of coffee farmers and make coffee farmers have a deeper understanding of fine coffee. After the introduction of the COE competition, in the first COE competition held in 2004, there were 13 boutique bean cups with a total score of more than 84 points, and the champion bean score was as high as 90.44 points. In addition, in order to solve the problem of untimely post-processing, a washing treatment plant has also been built in Yanggas area. Let the freshly picked coffee be post-processed as soon as possible to prevent the decline in quality caused by transportation. Coffee farmers are also constantly refining their planting techniques. In short, Bolivia has finally completed a magnificent turn in quality through its own efforts in all aspects.
