The
little town of Uyuni, located in the
Central High Plateau of the Potosi State,
was created in 1989, due to the Inauguration
of a Railroad Complex, which intention
was to go both to Chile or to Argentina.
This is a calm town, in a distant region,
which the acess can be done by trains
or through irregular roads.
Contituted and planified to be a railroad
base to serve the mineral exportation,
Uyuni has large and spacious avenues,
beautiful statues and a peculiar abandoned
train cemetery.
As time goes by, Uyuni has became an
important center of commerce and tourism.
Many people, from all over the world,
most young adventurers, come to Uyuni
in purpose of crossing the Uyuni Saltpan. |
