Description
The Milky Way rises above a ruined church and Sajama volcano (6542m / 21,465ft), Bolivia's highest peak. These rustic churches are typical of the region; research has shown many of them were built on sites sacred to the indigenous people to encourage them to convert to Catholicism. Some are still in use, others have fallen into disrepair (many villages in rural Bolivia have been abandoned as people have moved to the cities in search of work).
