Potosí
At an altitude of 4090 meters (over 13 thousand feet) above the sea level, Potosi is one of the highest cities in the world and one of the most historically rich cities in Bolivia. The city lies at the foot of “Cerro Rico” -a Mountain popularly conceived as being “made of” silver, having been the major supply of silver for Spain during the period of the New World Spanish Empire.
In 1987, Potosi was declared by UNESCO a World Heritage site: the city has in fact stayed intact throughout the centuries, not only in its architecture, but also in the presence of its original cultures and ethnicities.
