Andean Wrestling at its Best!
The Cholitas Wrestling Tour offers an exciting and culturally rich experience, showcasing the strength, resilience, and entertainment of Bolivia’s indigenous women. This unique spectacle takes place in El Alto, a city adjacent to La Paz, and has become one of Bolivia’s most fascinating and empowering attractions. 

Your adventure begins with a scenic drive from La Paz to El Alto, offering breathtaking views of the city and the surrounding Andean mountains. Upon arrival, you’ll enter a lively wrestling arena, where the excitement begins to build as the crowd gathers.

The Cholitas, indigenous Aymara women, step into the ring dressed in their traditional attire—colorful pollera skirts, braided hair, and bowler hats—a striking contrast to their powerful wrestling moves. These women take on their opponents with skill, performing high-flying acrobatics, dramatic throws, and entertaining theatrics. Each match tells a story, often reflecting themes of justice, empowerment, and resilience.

The energy in the arena is electric, with spectators cheering, laughing, and engaging in the show. The matches are not only about competition but also about breaking stereotypes, as these women redefine their roles in society through strength and determination.
