Uyuni Railway Scrap Yard, Train graveyard in Bolivia.

The Uyuni Railway Scrap Yard, also known as the 'Great Train Graveyard', is filled with historic locomotives and train cars.

The trains were abandoned there in the mid 20th century when mining activity decreased in the region.

Today, this site has become a popular destination for tourists interested in history and industry.

Uyuni Railway Scrap Yard is located near the city of Uyuni and can be included in your tour of Salar de Uyuni.

It offers an eerie yet fascinating landscape of rusting metal in the middle of the desert.
