    80 Senses #68… The Salar de Uyuni salt flats

     

    In the southwest corner of Bolivia lies the Salar de Uyuni: one of the most surreal places on earth. Spread out over more than 4,000 square miles like an ivory ocean, these are the largest salt flats on earth.

    Hilly islands of huge cacti punctuate the monotony of white nothingness and by climbing up one of them you’ll enjoy unbeatable views over the bizarre hexagonal shapes which have formed on the salt deposits of this giant dried lake.
