Uyuni, the world largest mirror in the sky


Salar de Uyuni, the world’s largest salt flat in southwest Bolivia, is definitely the place need to see at least once in a life.



In the rainy season, the salt flat will be covered with water and becomes like a tremendous mirror.
Reflecting the sky, there will be no border between the sky and the earth. Everything will be unified.

Rainy season: from Nov. to Apr.
La Paz to Uyuni:546km(340mi) La Paz to Uyuni, by car: 8 to 12 hours
by airplane: Transporte Aereo Militar (TAM) or Linea Aerea Amazonas
By tour bus: Todo Turismo

For more pictures of the Uyuni Salt Flat, please visit our pinterest (and I'm sure you will love the flat!).


EDIT (and good news!!)
