Highlights:
Many historic buildings are still located in Tierra Amarilla. Especially
around or near the square there is a closed line of buildings typical of
the past centuries. They are not luxury constructions - better, they are
constructions that represent the common life during the past epochs. The
spirit of the past centuries can still be felt in the streets and shops
that have a unique trajectory.
The most important thing without doubt is a visit to the Carola Mine
Museum, located near the south exit of Tierra Amarilla (Entra Carola /
Ojos del Salado / Punta de Cobre).
The excellent museum covers the history of mining, geology of the
sector, mineralogy and history of the Carola mine.
