Train Cemetery, Uyuni, Bolivia

Founded in 1890 as a trading post, the town has a population of 10,600 (2006 official estimate). The town has an extensive street-market. It lies at the edge of an extensive plain at an elevation of 3,670 meters above sea level, with more mountainous country to the east.
There is little agriculture in the area because water supplies are scarce and somewhat saline. Today the town's primary function is as a gateway for tourists visiting the world's largest salt flats - the Salar de Uyuni. Each year Uyuni receives approximately 60,000 visitors from around the globe.
