Tupiza - Bolivia

Tupiza is a city in Potosí Department, Bolivia. It is located at an elevation of about 2850 m. Tupiza and its environs are characterized by dramatic red escarpments which jut ruggedly skyward from the coarse, gray terrain; green agricultural land adjacent to the Tupiza River provides welcome respite from the otherwise arid, thorny surroundings.

Tupiza es una ciudad y municipio de Bolivia, situada al sureste del país. La ciudad se encuentra en el territorio ancestral de los Chichas. Tupiza ha sido, tradicionalmente, un importante centro agrícola, ferroviario y de comercio, con importantes distritos mineros en sus cercanías

Legend has it that Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid met their end at the hands of the Bolivian army near Tupiza, concluding their notorious string of bank robbery raids. Various local outfitters provide horseback or jeep tours to the rumored site.

From Tupiza, various towns in the local mining districts are accessible, as is the Salar de Uyuni.
