Santa Cruz is in stark contrast to La Paz. Climate is tropical and altitude is only 1,250 feet. It is on the eastern lowland side of the Andes mountain range and one of the gateways to Bolivia's jungle area. Trinidad is the other. Much of Bolivia's natural resources, including agricultural products, are found in this area. Although Santa Cruz has grown tremendously some parts of downtown still retain a look of an Old West frontier town. Carnival is an especially happy time to be in Santa Cruz.
