Potosi - Active Mine Tour - Half Day -
Perched at a breathtaking altitude of over 4,000 meters, Potosí proudly stands among the highest urban settlements on the planet. Its towering neighbor, Cerro Potosí, looms majestically, an ever-present sentinel in an expansive, high-altitude panorama. The city's origins trace back to 1546, where Spanish colonizers established it as a mining hub. In the two centuries that followed, a staggering 40,000 tons of silver flowed from its rich veins, propelling the Spanish Empire to unprecedented wealth. This economic surge, however, came at a tremendous human cost with countless indigenous laborers subjected to harsh conditions in the mines. By 1672, Potosí had soared to prominence, becoming one of the wealthiest cities globally, a testament to its lucrative extractive industry. Present-day Potosí still echoes with the clatter and bustle of mining activity, as workers continue to delve into the earth for mineral treasure. Visitors are afforded the remarkable opportunity to embark on an enthralling tour of the mines. These excursions offer a window into the miners' enduring traditions and the resilient spirit that defines their way of life.
