Faro de Conchupata

TIME : 2016/2/19 14:35:40

On November 17, 1851 Bolivia’s flag was first raised at Faro de Conchupata: red for the courage of the Bolivian army, gold for the country’s mineral wealth and green for its agricultural wealth. The spot is now marked by a platform and column topped by an enormous glass globe, illuminated at night. It provides a fine view over the town.
