Salar de Uyuni, Salt pan in Bolivia

Salar de Uyuni is the world's largest salt flat, spanning an area of 10,582 square kilometers.

This salt flat was formed as a result of transformations between several prehistoric lakes.

It plays a significant role in the local economy due to its massive lithium reserves.

With suitable conditions, Salar de Uyuni can even be seen from space.

During the rainy season, the surface of Salar de Uyuni turns into a giant mirror.
