Salar de Uyuni is the world’s largest salt flat at 4,086 sq mi, and when it’s wet it is a remarkable mirror.
It’s been photographed thousands of times with striking results, and this time-lapse video by Enrique Pacheco is no exception.
Found in the province of Potosí, Bolivia, the reflections produced by the water flooding in the rainy season create a mirror-like surface all the way to the horizon, “where the sky meets the earth forming an infinite mirage,” the video description reports.
“The Salar of Uyuni serves as a transport route through the Altiplano of Bolivia, but tourism has an increasingly more important role in the area.”
