Real De Catorce

VG: Real de 14 est une "ville fantôme": elle s'est tres rapidement developpee suite a la decouverte de mines d'argent et puis elle a ete abandonnee il y a une centaine d'annees... pour y acceder on doit traverser un etroit tunnel de 2 kilometres, dans l'obscurite et dans un petit bus prevu pour 25 personnes mais on etait au moins 50...!
AC: An abandoned silver mining town in the Mexican central highlands (2750m) reached only after several dodgy bus rides and a final claustrophobic 2km trip through a tunnel big enough for only one little shuttle bus at a time (and as usual crammed with more people than it should have had!) The town itself has an eerie feeling of once thriving little mining town, now only just coming back to life. Really enjoyed the walks in the mountains surrounding the village and we were able to get some really spectacular views of the town from high.
