📝Travel tips:
🔸The weather in Uyuni is unpredictable. I originally wanted to sign up for a three-day tour, but due to heavy rains for several days, the passage to Cactus Island was flooded. Well, so the biggest force majeure for travel is definitely the weather. In the end, I chose a two-day tour. I still recommend that you prepare more travel plans.
🔹The stinky lake is rich in various minerals, especially sulfur, so it will smell like rotten eggs. But you will get used to it after a long time, after all, the picnic in the itinerary is still by the stinky lake. The picnic includes drinks (cola, mineral water), staple food (roasted chicken, rice), vegetable salad, and fruit (banana).
🔸Flamingos in high-altitude areas are mainly pink, one is the variety, and the other is because the chlorophyll content of algae in the salt lake is insufficient.
🔹Whether it is a mythical beast or a mythical bird, they are all highly alert. There is no telephoto lens, and they will run away when they are approached.
