Pozos has had several periods of wealth, but the day came when the minerals were exhausted and this Ghost Town was left for the admiration of adventurous visitors;

The well-preserved colonial architecture reflects the Spanish influence, while the cobblestone streets and historic buildings tell the stories of a vibrant and culturally rich past.
