Ch'iyar T'ikhi is a mountain located in the Andes mountain range in Bolivia. It is part of the Cordillera Real, a beautiful mountain chain. This mountain stands about 5,092 meters (or 16,706 feet) tall.
The name Ch'iyar T'ikhi comes from the Aymara language. Ch'iyara means "black," and t'ikhi refers to a special hairstyle worn by indigenous women, where the ends of their hair are tied. So, the name means "black t'ikhi."
Ch'iyar T'ikhi is found in the La Paz Department, specifically in the Los Andes Province and Batallas Municipality. It is located south-west of a mountain called Jach'a Qullu, west of Qala T'uxu, north of Qullqi Chata, and north-east of Taypi K'uchu. Two rivers, Pura Purani and Jayllawaya, flow near the mountain. Both of these rivers eventually flow into Lake Titicaca.
