Copacabana es un pueblo con aproximadamente 5000 habitantes de origen Aymara. Mucho antes de la invasión española, Copacabana era considerada una tierra sagrada por los incas. Las tradiciones y costumbres locales aún se mantienen vivas y al paso de los años el pueblo llegó a ser sede de varios festivales. Para el turismo local, Copacabana es famosa por la iglesia y la imagen de la virgen de Copacabana, considerada la protectora de Bolivia.
Para el turismo internacional, Copacabana es famosa por las maravillosas vistas que se tiene sobre el lago Titicaca. Antes de que los españoles lleguen y cambien el nombre del pueblo a “Copacabana”, la gente local lo llamaba “Kotacawaña”, que significa el mirador sobre el lago.
