The Train Cemetery is an unusual tourist attraction located just outside the town of Uyuni, in southwestern Bolivia. It is a sprawling collection of rusted, abandoned trains and locomotives that were once used to transport minerals to the coast. The trains were left to rust and decay after the mining industry collapsed in the 1940s.

The site is now a popular tourist attraction, with visitors coming to explore the rusting trains and take photographs of the unique and eerie scenery. The collection of trains includes steam locomotives, passenger cars, and freight cars, some of which are over 100 years old.

The train cemetery is easily accessible and can be visited on foot or by bicycle. There are no admission fees, and visitors are free to explore the area and climb on the old trains. However, caution should be taken as some of the trains are unstable and it is easy to get lost in the maze of rusted metal. It is recommended to visit the site with a guide or as part of a tour.
