Bolivia

Wooden houses are rare — most homes are brick and cement. Some areas differ in color, and some areas have almost no buildings at all.

Sign posts are often thick, square timber-like posts. Metal posts turn up occasionally too.

Most license plates are white or a faint blue.

Some roads are paved with larger cobblestones.

The colorful Wiphala flag or logo can be spotted.

YPFB, one of Bolivia's largest companies in resource exploration and production, has a diamond-shaped logo that can occasionally be spotted.

Elevation rises toward the west, while the east is mostly flat lowland.

Treeless surroundings, mountains all around, and sparse housing might mean an area near Lake Titicaca.

In low-elevation areas, there seems to be a tradition of coloring house walls with cement.

The higher the elevation, the more common simple brick houses become.

The RN3 (Ruta 3) runs northeast from La Paz through some fairly rugged mountains. Roads in this area are often shrouded in heavy fog.

The road pavement on the eastern part of RN4 (around Santa Cruz) is distinctive. The Santa Cruz area is quite green and mostly flat.

Like RN4, the RN7 is also green, but passes through more mountainous terrain than RN4.

The RN9 is green and runs north-south. Look for red-and-white bollards, reflectors near the shoulder, and an orange center line.

La Paz sits in a bowl-shaped basin, and cliffs are sometimes visible.

Dolls dressed in gray clothing are sometimes hung from utility poles — apparently a warning message aimed at thieves.

In certain parts of Sucre, an ordinance requires walls to be painted white.

In Sajama National Park, you can see Sajama, a distinctive mountain, along with an equally distinctive Google Car.

Isla del Sol, said to be the birthplace of the Inca Empire, has many Inca-era ruins.

There's a walking Street View through the Train Cemetery.

There's Street View inside a salt flat called Ojos del Salar.
