Chaka Salt Lake

We chose a day with good weather to visit Chaka Salt Lake. We arrived at the scenic area at 8:20 AM, then took the scenic area shuttle bus (about 20 minutes). After that, we transferred to an electric cart to reach the main station (about 10 minutes). At that time, there weren’t too many tourists, and the lighting was just perfect—ideal for taking photos. If you have time, you can explore while walking back from the main station. There are many spots along the way for photo opportunities, and you can even hire a professional to help with drone photography.
