Not content with t-shirts and posters, Bolivia offers “Che trail” to tourists

Capitalism + nostalgia for famed revolutionary Che Guevara = the “Che trail,” a 500 mile path along landmarks associated with Guevara’s 1967 battles in Bolivia. Though the trail has yet to be finished, local Bolivians are excited with the income that could be created by the venture, including museums and hotels dedicated to the memory of “el Che.” (Image is of a large bust of Che Guevara along the “Che trail”.)
