Salar de Uyuni
Autor, Travelbay
The Salar de Uyuni needs no introduction. This largest salt flats in the world is the most recognizable and most visited attraction in Bolivia. According to estimates, there is 10 billion tons of salt in the Salar de Uyuni area! It is also the largest lithium concentration in the world. Of course, tourists come here not for the elements, but for the views.
Huge, white space, covered with a layer of water during the rainy season, is an inexhaustible source of photographic inspiration. In addition, you can meet there majestically crawling flamingos , as well as admire amazing rock formations and interesting vegetation, mainly succulents. The biggest attractions include Laguna Colorada , a train graveyard or… a monument with the inscription Dakar.
For whom?
If you collect places from the top of the top lists, then Salar de Uyuni is a must-see. The truth is that this Bolivian attraction is a must-see, at least once in a lifetime. Of course, this type of salt pans can also be admired on other continents, but they are much smaller and do not make such a huge impression as the Salar de Uyuni.
