The pace is gentle, the university keeps the streets young, and the caf\u00e9s, markets and viewpoints make it easy to fill days without trying.\r\n\r\nMany travellers stop here for a week or more to take Spanish classes, which are some of the cheapest on the continent, or to hike in the hills around the city.

Parque Cret\u00e1cico, on the edge of town, shows a quarry wall covered in thousands of dinosaur footprints, with life-size models in the park.\r\n\r\nFurther out, the Sunday market at Tarabuco is one of Bolivia's best, and the Maragua crater, a ring of coloured hills with villages and more dinosaur tracks, is a classic one- to three-day hike.

Mondongo, a pork and chilli stew, is the city's signature dish.\r\n\r\nWith so many students and long-stay travellers, Sucre also has plenty of relaxed caf\u00e9s and international restaurants at low prices, plus a few bars serving singani and local craft beer.","hw_hub_city_food_points":"Chocolate | Sucre's speciality, on and around the main square\r\nMercado Central | Juices, almuerzos and local sausages\r\nMondongo | Pork and chilli stew, the city's signature dish\r\nSalte\u00f1as | Mid-morning, in busy salte\u00f1er\u00edas","hw_hub_city_food_tag":"food","hw_hub_city_food_more":"All food guides for Sucre","hw_hub_city_nightlife_title":"Going out","hw_hub_city_nightlife_body":"Sucre's nightlife comes from its students.
