The city of La Paz is full of electric-power wires on the streets.
At first when you arrived, it is impossible not to notice them.... ..After some days, you see them as part of the city landscape.
As you can observe from the pictures, these wires cross each other, to make a very confusing net. These types of poles are almost all over the city; however, it is highly noticeable around the downtown area.
I supposed this was way the poles were built around 80 years ago or so, and for lack of funding or planning, the government has not been able to renewed them and modernize its connections.
For some it is part of the attraction and uniqueness of the place, as very few cities have kept these types of wires..
This is another visible factor that shows the need to work for development and to build infrastructure for the progress of the country. .
