The World's Largest Mirror

Salar de Uyuni, located in southwest Bolivia, is the world's largest salt flat, covering over 4,000 square miles at an elevation of 11,995 feet. During the rainy season, a thin layer of water transforms the salt flat into the world's largest natural mirror, creating surreal reflections of the sky. The salt flat contains over 10 billion tons of salt and is home to unique pink flamingos and other high-altitude wildlife.

Why It's Memorable:

  • The world's largest salt flat, covering an area larger than the state of Delaware
  • During the rainy season (December to April), the salt flat becomes a perfect mirror, reflecting clouds and sky
  • The salt crust is up to 33 feet thick in some areas, sitting atop a lake of brine
  • Home to three species of pink flamingos that nest on the salt islands
  • The Incahuasi Island, covered in giant cacti, rises from the salt flat like a mirage
  • The salt flat contains 50-70% of the world's lithium reserves, making it strategically important
  • The area's extreme altitude and clear skies make it ideal for stargazing
  • The surreal, otherworldly landscape has been featured in countless films and photographs
