Tuyajto Lake
Tuyajto Lake is a salt lake located in the Antofagasta Region, northern Chile. Located at an elevation of about 4,010 metres, its surface area presently fluctuates between 1.7–2.7 square kilometres but in the past it was considerably larger; this led to humans going to the lake and creating archeological sites there.| Tap on a place to explore it |
