The world's first cocaine bar


Route 36 has turned La Paz, Bolivia into a hotspot for drug tourism, tempting backpackers from all over the world.

"Tonight we have two types of cocaine; normal for 100 Bolivianos a gram, and strong cocaine for 150 [Bolivianos] a gram." The waiter has just finished taking our drink order of two rum-and-Cokes here in La Paz, Bolivia, and as everybody in this bar knows, he is now offering the main course. The bottled water is on the house.
