In a small town in the Bolivian Oruro, there is a unique Museum of its kind miners. It was equipped in addition to revered by all Bolivians the Sanctuary of the virgin of Socavon. And she is known to always patronized the miners. Although the Museum in every sense of the word, this place is difficult to call. The tourists are offered a route into the bowels of the mines. This is a great test, lots of impressions and a sense of adrenaline, because by the end of the 40 minute tour there is a serious lack of oxygen. Thus, each participant of the route can feel over and above that suffered by workers at the mine. Worked mainly in the faces of the Indians, but they were tough and independent, so they were replaced by Negroes from the plantations. However, in airless mines a long time he could not stand. Actually, this has saved the Indians from the Altiplano from total annihilation, because the faces to replace them so no one could. But, in the future, they began to haul out of the mine all that could be carried out. Thus, speeding up the closing process. The history of this dark, but very interesting places and you will find the Ethnographic Museum of miners.
