Oruro Travel Guide
Bolivia
Oruro is a city in western Bolivia with a population of 208,684. It is an inland destination rather than a coastal one, so beach trips are not part of a visit within the immediate area.
Travellers arriving by air use Juan Mendoza Airport (ORU), which serves the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Oruro, so plan for inland city and highland surroundings instead of seaside activities.
