Tiquipaya is a town located in the Cochabamba Department of central Bolivia. It serves as the seat of the Tiquipaya Municipality, which is the third municipal section of the Quillacollo Province. Known as the "city of flowers," the area is characterized by its climatic diversity, featuring a mix of valleys, high plains, and sub-tropical regions.
The town is a productive zone that hosts many dairy farmers and serves as a significant educational hub due to the presence of the Universidad del Valle (UNIVALLE). Historically, much of the area was an estate owned by the family of Petronila Zeballos Terrazas prior to the Bolivian National Revolution of 1952. In recent years, Tiquipaya has hosted notable events, including the 2010 World People's Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth.
