“Hi ho, Hi ho, Its down the mine we go” Corinneandluke’s photos around Potosi, Bolivia (vacation)

Entry from: Potosi, Bolivia Entry Title: “Hi ho, Hi ho, Its down the mine we go!” Entry: “So, we went to the bus station in La Paz and bought tickets to Potosi – the world´s highest city at 4100 meters, for 40 bolivianos each, which we thought was a bargain because everywhere else was askin for 80 bolivianos. However, we are not stupid and we know that you get what you pay for, which would inevitably mean no heating on the bus again. And we were right, it was blooooooooooooooooody freeeeeeeeeeezing!! even though we had put about 4 layers of clothes on we were still shivering to death, and when the bus driver stopped the bus for half an hour with the door open at 2.30am we were not happy!! But, we arrived in one piece with all of our belongings so we got an 11 hour journey for 4 quid, and couldnt complain! After finding a hostel and having a quick nap (a good 4 hours, you know us!) we went to try and find a mine tour. Potosi used to be one of the wealthiest countries in the world and even more so than madrid at one point, due to the Cerro Rico or Rich Mountain that was discovered to contain silver and other precious materials. But like most mines, the contents started to run out and the town soon became a ghost town as most of the miners and their families left town. The mine is still open today
