At one time a mint that converted mined silver into coins, this comprehensive museum houses 20 galleries that cover everything in Potosi’s history, from Bolivian weapons to archaeology and, of course, the minting process.

Potosi was among the richest and largest cities of the Americas at some point in history. This museum helps to explain its history including the importance of the Cerro Rico for the Spanish colony. Our guide was phantastic, the expositions and especially some of the original machines used for coin making are extraordinary.

Small bustling community where you transfer to overland vehicles for your exploration of the Salt Flats. The collection of old trains standing, rusting away is an awesome sobering sight. Rail cars everywhere. Indeed it can be called a Cemetery. Good one.
