Bolivia offers a unique blend of cultural richness and stunning landscapes, including the Andes and Lake Titicaca, making it an intriguing destination for some Japanese travelers. Although the country sees modest international tourism numbers, it could appeal to a segment of the 500,000 Japanese who travel abroad annually.
Bolivia is considered relatively safe for tourists, ranking 66th out of 160 countries on the Global Peace Index. However, it is less safe compared to Japan, which ranks 17th. The murder rate in Bolivia is 3.5 per 100,000 people, significantly higher than Japan's rate of 0.2. In terms of organized crime, Bolivia has various indices that indicate higher levels of crime compared to Japan. For example, Bolivia scores 8.5 in cocaine trade, while Japan scores 3.0. Overall, while Bolivia is generally safe for tourists, travelers should remain aware of their surroundings and take standard safety precautions.
