Palacio Consistorial de La Paz, Municipal government building in Plaza Murillo, La Paz, Bolivia.
The Palacio Consistorial stands as a three-story structure with white stone facades and large windows overlooking the central plaza of La Paz.
Architect Emilio Villanueva Peñaranda designed this administrative building in 1925 after a fire destroyed the previous municipal offices in the same location.
The palace represents political administration in La Paz through its eclectic architectural elements combining European and local Bolivian influences.
Municipal council sessions and mayoral offices operate within this building, which underwent restoration work in 2014 to preserve its original features.
The building sits at an elevation of 3,650 meters above sea level, making it one of the highest administrative centers in the world.
