Salar de Uyini in Southwest Bolivia, is one of the favorite destinations of adventure seekers. The endless white stretches of salty plains on the word’s largest salt desert leaves you with breath taking visuals. Dramatic sunsets, giant cactuses, hot springs and sulphur pools are something you should not be missing on your trip there.
Oh yes, do not forget the multi-colored lakes! You have a white lake due to borax, a red lake infested with red algae, a yellow lake due to sulphur concentrations, and blue one from the manganese.
You must be ‘Roman in Rome’ to soak into the real culture of the place you are traveling to. So, if you can put up in the ‘Ice hotel’ in Norway to see how the life an eskimo is, what do you do when you go to a salt desert? Stay in a ‘Salt hotel’, of course!
Every thing (well, almost) in the ‘Salt hotel’ is made up of salt blocks offering a unique experience to the travelers. So you sit on the salt chairs, eat on salt tables, enjoy your wine in the salt bar and sleep on salt beds. In short, you sit, eat and sleep on salt. You are even given instructions to be careful enough not to lick the walls but do give it a try to check if it’s genuine!
If you are off to Bolivia this time, check in at the Salt Hotel and experience a unique stay and you just know what to do if you need some salt for your soup!
