all about the largest salt desert in the world!!
Salar de Uyuni
Welcome to Uyuni!! Get ready to explore one of South America’s most iconic locations, located in the Southwest of Bolivia near the border between Bolivia and Chile is the small town of Uyuni and the largest salt desert in the world.
Situated at an elevation of approximately 3,670 meters (12,040 feet) above sea level in the Potosí and Oruro departments. Uyuni has become a central hub for tourism in the region, primarily because of its proximity to the Salar de Uyuni (Uyuni Salt Flats), one of the most iconic and breathtaking natural attractions in Bolivia.
The Salt Desert covers an area of over 10,000 square kilometers (3,900 square miles), making it the largest salt flat in the world. Known for its otherworldly and surreal landscapes, during the rainy season a thin layer of water creates a mirror effect, reflecting the sky. This unique scenery attracts photographers and tourists from around the world.
