Salar De Uyuni: The World's Largest Salt Flat

The largest natural mirror on earth, during the rainy season, a thin layer of water covers this salt flat and creates stunning reflections. It is the largest salt flat, and the thickness of its salt crust reaches up to 10 meters. In fact, it is a remnant of lakes from around 40,000 years ago that once dried up.

In the middle of this vast salt flat, there are islands covered with giant cacti, some of which are 100 years old.

Flamingos come here at certain times of the year and feed on the shrimps in the salt water ponds.

At night, the clear sky,, free of light pollution, allows the stars to reflect in the water, creating an otherworldly scene
