Colonial Buildings in Sucre, Bolivia

The beautiful white historic churches and houses of Bolivias capital city are name-giving to the "city white as sugar". While nearby Potosi grew to become the richest city in the entire world due to its huge silver mine, the Spanish colonial masters preferred Sucre over the dusty mining town and invested some of their silver to erect these impressive buildings before sending the rest to Spain.
