This modest Bolivian town in the Yungas region east of the Andes, Coroico has an unusual concentration of cafés, restaurants, and churches for its size, and serves as a base for excursions into the surrounding Yungas Road area. It sits in the La Paz Department, roughly a day's drive northeast of the city of La Paz, in a valley known for mild temperatures year-round.
