Weather is crucial! The scenery in Chaka is dramatically different on sunny and cloudy days. Check the weather forecast carefully; if it's cloudy or rainy, don't hesitate!
When taking photos at the salt lake, wear shoe covers. 1. Bring your own or rent them at the scenic area. The shoe covers you bring shouldn't be too short; ideally, they should be above the knee.
Also, bring sunglasses, sun protection clothing, and a sun hat. Ultraviolet rays are very strong, making it difficult to keep your eyes open when taking photos.
