La Oroya is more of a convenient stopping point than an actual tourist destination. There is little of interest to travelers in this town but most major roads in this highland area pass through La Oroya. Consequently, visitors are likely to spend at least some time here, whether they like it or not.
The town prides itself on its industry, a smelter and a refinery. There are some hotels in town if you find yourself spending a night, although it really doesn't warrant a night's stop. La Oroya is located at an elevation of 3731m / 12,050ft, making for cold nights.
