Departamento de Santa Cruz Travel Guide: 106 reviews and 243 photos

.Hi all this is a little very old picture of Santa Cruz de la Sierra , this place is really diferent from the others cities her in BOlivia, we have a diferent culture , here ia m showing a picture how people used to dress, there are the women with a dress called Tipoy , without sleeves and bare feet, there is man also wearing in white pants and shirt and this hat called Sao hat !! and the tipycal guitar , because men from Santa Cruz used to take seranate to declare their love to the girls they liked , that was a habit of them !!
And finally the Carreton is what they used to use as transportation, the wheels are made of wood

Jesuists missions!!

loved it !!

This is one of the church that belongs to the Jesuists mission, it is placed in a little town called Concepcion , 6 hours far form the city, there are places for staying, there is a museum that is you enjoy history you will like it!!
Tip: there buses in the city that go there every day at 2 pm in a market called Los Pozos and the fare costs like 5 $

Lomas de Arena!! ..(Sand hills)

This place is very nice !! gives Santa Cruz an exotic touch !! because is 1 hour far from the city and you can practice sand boarding there and there is a lake aswell in the middle like an Oasis .. it is great !! you have to see it !!
