The mines turned Potosi into one of the richest and largest cities in the world, with around 160,000 inhabitants in the 17th century, larger than Madrid and on par with London.

It is not exactly a lake: the water is covered by a thick crust of salt, capable of supporting the weight of a car. Harsh and inhospitable, this perfectly flat expanse, with snow-covered mountains delimiting the distant horizon, resembles an extraterrestrial landscape. When it is covered with water after the rains, from December to April, the Salar becomes a huge mirror that reflects the sky so perfectly as to eliminate the horizon line. In this extreme environment, tenacious forms of life survive, such as cacti and flamingos, as well as isolated communities of Quechua and Aymara campesinos. However, the importance of the Salar is becoming predominantly commercial: in this region, one of the most remote on the planet, the second largest lithium deposit in the world is found, essential for powering batteries for a large number of portable electronic devices and also for cars., lunch break at nel mezzo del Salar, transfer to Uyuni.
