Uyuni Salt Flats is the world's largest salt flat. It is about 10,582sq km wide and 3,656 m above sea level.
It was formed as a result of the transformation between prehistoric lakes. With rising temperatures and climate changes, the water evaporated and salt and minerals were left behind. It is covered by salt crust and lithium. When it rains, then the thin layer of dead calm water transforms the flat into the largest mirror of the world, about 129km.
In Spanish, Salar means salt flat. It looks like snow from above, but it is just salt. Many tourists come to visit this place as it is the biggest attraction for the tourists. Visitors usually plant their country flag here in this place as a remark on the most surreal landscapes on the earth. Here, you can enjoy a night's stay at the world's first salt hotel. This is the most luxurious salt hotel in the Salar, with facilities like a dry sauna, steam room, whirlpool, and saltwater baths.
