Totora () (in hispanicized spelling), Tutura or T'utura (Aymara and Quechua for ''Schoenoplectus californicus'', an aquatic plant)〔Teofilo Laime Ajacopa, Diccionario Bilingüe Iskay simipi yuyayk'ancha, La Paz, 2007 (Quechua-Spanish dictionary)〕〔Diccionario Quechua - Español - Quechua, Academía Mayor de la Lengua Quechua, Gobierno Regional Cusco, Cusco 2005 (Quechua-Spanish dictionary)〕 is a town in the Carrasco Province of the Cochabamba Department in Bolivia. It is the capital and most-populous place of the Totora Municipality. As of the 2012 census, the population is 1,925. The first settlers were Inca Indians.

== History ==
The first settlers of the city were from the Inca Empire.〔http://www.totora.org/es2/primeros_pobladores_de_totora.htm〕 From 1530 until 1722, the land Totora occupied was in control of Spaniards who mainly used the land for cocoa production. The first time the town was mentioned was in 1639, when a landowner named Don Fernando García Murillo had established a chaplaincy.〔http://www.cambio.bo/noticia.php?fecha=2011-07-10&idn=49373〕 The city was officially settled on 24 June 1876 after the Mizque Municipality was divided into the Mizque and the Totora Municipality. It was officially declared a city by the Bolivian Government on 27 October 1894. The first residents of Totora were wealthy landowners, traders, and textile artisans. It was also a trading stop between west and east of Bolivia.〔
On 22 May 1998, a 6.8 MW earthquake hit the Totora and Aiquile area. There were four foreshocks—ranging from 2.7 to 5.8—and consistent aftershocks until 27 May. 105 people were killed, and it was considered a "national tragedy" by then-President Hugo Banzer.
In 2000, Totora was declared a "Cultural Heritage of Humanity" by the United Nations.〔http://cochabambabolivia.net/totora〕
