Cooperative Mine, Potosi, Bolivia

Before entering the mine it is recommended that you buy some token supplies for the miners such as coca leaves for chewing, 96% alcohol and maybe some dynamite sticks. The dusty and uncomfortable conditions have not changed for a very long time.

Potosi is the highest city in the world at 4090m, which means cold nights even in summer. I returned to Sucre by local bus.
