Sucre, one of Bolivia's capital cities, is situated between the Altiplano and the lowlands. The city boasts pleasant weather all year round. It is renowned for its stunning white houses in the downtown area. Plaza 25 de Mayo is the heart of Sucre, encircled by the Cathedral, the regional government office, the Alcaldía, the historic Casa de la Libertad, and a variety of restaurants and bars. The traditional Spanish architecture in the downtown area can still be appreciated today. The city is rich in beautiful colonial architecture with many original buildings still standing. All buildings in the city's central core are either whitewashed or painted white, earning Sucre the nickname of the White City.
