This is a full round of 18 holes through Santa Cruz de la Sierra. The map follows the real city and the ball rolls across its actual streets, using landmarks like the Monumento Cristo Redentor to form the holes. Six portals help the ball skip across a total walk of 10.3 km. Skip knows every corner of this place, including exactly which ledges hold the best crumbs. This local guide sees the city from a bird's eye view and knows the streets by heart.
The Catedral Metropolitana Basílica Menor de San Lorenzo is a Catholic cathedral and a minor basilica. It is a national monument of Bolivia and the main Catholic church in Santa Cruz de la Sierra. Located in the city center, the building sits opposite the 24 de Septiembre Square. The inception of the cathedral was in 1845, and the architect of the project was Felipe Bertrés. The overall style of the structure is eclecticism in art. It is a central point of the city's religious and civic identity.
Let me show you Monumento Cristo Redentor. This statue is a national monument of Bolivia and a prominent landmark in the city of Santa Cruz de la Sierra. When you look up at the figure, you can pick out its scale as it reaches a height of 8 meters. Construction on the monument was started in 1892, making it a long-standing presence in the area. It is a great spot to pause and look around the city before you continue your way. I always find the view from this spot gives a nice sense of where you are.
