'''Villazón''' is a town in southern [[Bolivia]], on the border with [[Argentina]]. It sits directly across [[La Quiaca River]] from [[La Quiaca]] in Argentina. The town is a busy trading hub, with large quantities of goods flowing north.

It is also a heavily used transit hub for tourists passing into Bolivia. A train line connects Villazón with [[Tupiza]], [[Uyuni]] and [[Oruro, Bolivia|Oruro]]. Two train services, the ''Expreso del Sur'' and slightly cheaper ''Wara Wara del Sur'', each run twice a week. Buses also connect to many destinations.
