Train Cemetery
Your adventure will begin by visiting an outdoor museum of the ancient and impressive field trains.
The Train Cemetery in Uyuni is a major tourist attraction. It is a desolate place full of abandoned railway machinery. When we see that pantheon of twisted iron and disused locomotives, we think of the glorious past they had at the beginning of the 20th century. The rise of silver mining demanded the construction of railways and Uyuni was the place in Bolivia where the whistle of a train was heard for the first time.
You will have a visit with photo stops.

Uyuni Salt Flat
Enter the Salar by Colchani, where you will see the salt processing and piles of salt, visit the salt hotel.
Your visit will be guided by the following cultural heritage of the Salar de Uyuni:
* Salt Stairway: Designed with the purpose of allowing the taking of photographs with special optical effects. An overwhelming saline ensemble loaded with the most authentic beauty.
* Dakar Rally Monument and the endless forest of flags: You will observe the flags worldwide, central symbol of Bolivia, heart of Latin America.
* Salt Pyramid: From this point, you will observe the mountains outlined on the horizon, minimized by the distance and by the majesty imposed by the infinite salt plateau.
* Polygons and Ojos de Sal: In the upper crust of the Salar, you will distinguish the so-called brine eyes. These are small holes formed by fine, sharp crystals like needles, accompanied by polygonal figures in the immense whiteness of the Salar.
