Chott el Djerid is a vast endorheic salt lake situated in southern Tunisia, renowned for its stunning and surreal landscapes. Covering an area of over 7,000 square kilometers, it is the largest salt pan in the Sahara Desert. The lake is typically dry for most of the year, with its surface covered by a thick crust of salt. During winter, rainfall can create a shallow layer of water, giving rise to mesmerizing mirages and reflections.
