Gillet Salt Lake is the largest desert salt lake in the world. Although it is named a lake, the actual water content of the Gillet Salt Lake is very small and the salt content is extremely high due to the huge amount of evaporation. There is even one of the lakes with the highest salt content in the world. Said that the salt content is even comparable to that of the Dead Sea. If you are lucky, you can still see a mirage in the desert when the weather is clear and the sun is strong.

Jared Salt Lake in Tozeur is the third largest salt lake in the world. The salt content here is very high, even dozens of times higher than the oxygen content in the sea. When the salt lake is hot, large tracts of salt pans are often exposed. The white layer looks like snow is attached to it, which is especially magical.

The Jared Salt Lake in Tunisia is the third largest salt lake in the world and the largest desert salt lake in the world. Departing from Tozeur to Matmata, the bus passed through this salt lake after half an hour, and got off at some point to enjoy the salt lake scenery. Because Jared Salt Lake is located in the desert, the water of the lake is evaporated by the hot sun at a high speed, so the lake surface is almost dry. Maybe the weather is too hot, and there are no people in the saltworks on the roadside and the souvenir stalls on the roadside.

Star Wars. The desert is grass-free and looks at dunes as if on the moon; Star uses it as the home planet of the Skywalker family. Heavy step on the foot, immediately Armstrong to the moon with the bold "one small step for a man, one giant leap for humanity".

Starting from Tozeur, under the scorching sun, we drove on the 100-kilometer-long Salt Lake Highway to reach the Jared Salt Lake with an area of more than 5,000 square kilometers on the northern edge of the Sahara Desert. The vast snow-white land is the crystal of Jared Salt Lake like small roses. Or it looks like a wave. The salt lake contains several times higher salt than sea water. It is one of the world's most salty water bodies. It can be described as a desert miracle. The rudimentary French-owned salt factory nearby specializes in industrial snow salt for export. The sight of a mirage is really amazing~
