About Uyuni Salt Flats
Uyuni stretches 4,086 square miles of blinding white—the world's largest salt flat, so vast and featureless it creates an optical illusion where sky and earth vanish into one. Flamingos wade in crimson lagoons rimmed by volcanoes, geysers erupt from rocky peaks, and at night the stars multiply so thickly they seem to merge with reflected constellations. It is Earth's most alien landscape.
