Train to the clouds - Salta
The Train to the Clouds was originally built to connect Argentina to Chile in 1930. Constructing this viaduct in the middle of the Andes was without doubt an impressive engineering task. This viaduct, known as La Polvorilla, is located at 4220m (13850ft) above sea level, and is 70m high and 224m long. Nowadays the Train to the Clouds runs a daily tourist trip up to La Polvorilla and then back to the city of Salta.
