Lonely Planet review for Av René Moreno
Av René Moreno is the place for souvenir shopping. Beware that prices are much higher here than in La Paz for llama and alpaca wool goods, so perhaps save your pennies by shopping in the capital.
Woodcarvings made from the tropical hardwoods morado and the more expensive guayacán (from US$20 for a nice piece) are unique to the Santa Cruz area. Relief carvings on tari nuts are also interesting and make nice portable souvenirs. Locals also make beautiful macramé llicas (root-fiber bags).
