Uyuni is one of the most amazing places I’ve ever been. Epic landscapes, wonderful, wonderful people. You’re about two hours away from the final shootout of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. You’re two hours away from Potosi, the world‘s most important and oldest silver mine. The salt flats themselves are larger than Lebanon, dotted with islands of ancient coral and blooming cacti. It’s where Star Wars the last Jedi battle scene was filmed, there’s a British and American steam locomotive graveyard to play around in. It’s just supremely incredible and well worth the effort to see.
