Bolivia's Salar de Uyuni, or the Uyuni salt flat, is one of the most surreal and beautiful landscapes on the planet. It's so remote that only the most diehard travelers will ever get a chance to see it.

The video above might be the next best thing.

"Reflections From Uyuni" is a stunning time-lapse video from filmmaker Enrique Pacheco, which captures the salt flat and some of the surrounding landscapes.

As the video's title implies, the focus is on reflections. The thin layer of water that sits over the salt after a rain storm creates what some have called the "world's largest mirror."

(The video was slow-loading for me, but worth the wait.)
