Sewell, The city of stairsby ~animetalera

Photography / Architecture / Statues & Monuments

Internada y escondida entre las montañas de los Andes, yace oculta la ciudad de sewell.
Para mineros y sus familias fué construida en 1904, bajo la mano del ingeniero norteamericano William Braden, de la empresa minera estadounidense Braden Copper Company. Dueña de la mina El Teniente, fuente de trabajo para todos los habitantes de esta ciudad.
a 64 km de rancagua, la cuidad más cercana, espera escondida con los secretos por descubrir.
lo que en un principio solo era un establecimiento con los años, el crecimiento de la indistria y las buenas condiciones de trabajo que ofrecian los extranjeros, la ciudad se fue poblandi y creciendo.
en un comienzo (1911) la habitaban 4000 personas, para (1960) estaba habitada por alrededor de 15000 personas.
contaba con un hospital, cine, pulperias, escuelas, iglesias.
llamada la ciudad de las escaleras debido a la ausencia de calles, la Gran escalera principal conecta la actualmente inactiva estacion de trenes con la industria y el resto del pueblo.
Es toda una ciudad, oculta del mundo, entre las montañas, ya clausurada por las condiciones de vida. ahora yace como patrimonio nacional, esperando a las visitas.
