Clubbing in La Paz: * Mongo's, Hermanos Manchego 2444. Since 1995 has remained one of the most popular places for travellers with a good mix of locals. It's a lively atmosphere every night of the week at this gem of a place. Open from 6:00 PM till 3:30 AM. Serving the best in global cuisine, and well priced.
* Ram Jam Presbitero Medina 2124, near Plaza Avaroa , is another popular place, Less gringos than Mongos. Serves Saya beer from Adventurebrew hostel. Occasional live gigs. 0, 6 l beer 18 Bs. Saturday cover charge 10 Bs.
* Forum, Near Plaza Espana is a mostly Bolivian hangout though is La Paz's only proper disco venue. Upper class Bolivians frequent the establishment very dressed up. Worth a look if you're missing a big club with big pretensions.
* Gitanas, Zona Sur, Calle 8 de Calacoto, is a bar/club hangout for upper class youth of La Paz's South Zone.

It seems La Paz is a destination many Americans like hang out in. If that is the case, I assume it would be easy spotting other Americans there, is it not?If you have a couple of friends that have been there before, they might be able to offer enough and exhaustive advice like the amount of money you are likely to spend.
There are enough resources online too!
