Moon Valley is located in Bolivia, 11 km from La Paz city center. The geological "miracle of nature", which is a labyrinth of canyons and giant sharp spiers, was formed as a result of erosion - for centuries, water and wind have been turning surreal landscapes into clay rocks. Lunar Valley got its name from the light arm of the American astronaut Neil Armstrong - the first person to set foot on the moon. Locals claim that, having seen rocky cones, craters and hollows, the legendary astronaut compared the bizarre terrain with the surface of the moon. Due to the different mineral composition of the rock, rocky structures are distinguished by a variety of shades - from beige to reddish and dark purple. Several cactus species grow in the valley, including San Pedro, which contains the powerful hallucinogen mescaline. Of the animals there are several species of lizards and a strange animal - a mountain whisker, a rodent of the chinchilla family, outwardly resembling a rabbit, but with a squirrel tail. Walking routes along the Moon Valley are equipped for visitors, in some places the path is quite narrow and steep, there are suspension bridges and steep stairs. The Devil's Point observation deck offers panoramic views of the city and the picturesque surroundings. At the entrance to the Moon Valley there is a small tourist information center, those who wish to stay overnight can stay in a nearby campsite.
