- Indawo: inxalenye esezantsi ye-Atacama Desert, eChile;
- Indawo: 3000 km²;
- Umlinganiselo wokuphakama kwinqanaba elwandle: 2300 m.
I-Chile akuyona nje ilizwe elincinane kunazo zonke eMzantsi Melika, eselulela i-4,630 km ecaleni lonxweme oluseNtshona-ntshonalanga kwaye ibe nobubanzi bee-430 khilomitha kuphela, kodwa kunye neyona ndawo ininzi yelizwekazi elinelizwekazi. Ukusuka ezintlango ezinkulu kunye ne-solonchaks kwiintaba-mlilo ezikhethiweyo zeqhwa kunye ne-glaciers, iChile iyazithanda ngokwayo, ukusuka kwimimiselo yokuqala, ubuhle bayo bemvelo. Enye yezona ndawo zibalaseleyo zelizwe elimangalisayo yiyona nkqantosi eyomileyo yeplanethi - Atakama , apho, ngokungaqhelekanga, kukho ilityuwa yegama elifanayo. Makhe sithethe ngakumbi malunga nalo.
Ulwazi olubanzi malunga nelibi
I-Atacama (iSalar de Atacama) yiyona nto inkulu kunxweme lomnyuwa eChile.

Ummandla weSalar de Atacama ungama-3000 km², uhlanganisa ngaphezu kweekhilomitha ezili-100 ubude kunye neekhilomitha ezingama-80 ububanzi. Yona yesithathu i-solonchak enkulu emhlabeni emva kwe-Uyuni eBolivia (10,588 km²) kunye no-Salines Grandes e-Argentina (6000 km²).
Yintoni enomdla malunga neLake Atacama?
I-Salar yase-Atacama mhlawumbi iyintombazane ethandwa kakhulu kwezokhenketho eChile. Kukho amancinane amachibi amancinane kwintsimi ye-solonchak, kuquka iLaguna Lagoon, apho ininzi yama-flamingos, iLalada Lagoon, amanzi ayo agutyungwe ngamacwecwe aneetyuwa ajikelezayo, kunye neLaguna Sekhar, equle iityuwa ngaphezu kweLwandle Olufile. Ukongeza:
- I-Atacama iLake ibhekwa njengowona mkhulu kwaye ngexesha elifanayo elihlambulukileyo emhlabeni jikelele umthombo we-lithium. Ukugxininiswa okuphezulu, izinga lokukhuphuka kwamanzi kunye nezulu elinzulu kakhulu (
- Inxalenye ye-solonchak yinxalenye yeSizwe yePosifa yaseLos Flamencos. Indawo enqabileyo ibe yindawo yokukhusela iintlobo ezininzi ze-flamingos (iChilean kunye ne-Andean), amadada (ityali ephuzi-tailed, idada e-crested), njl, okwenza le ndawo ibe yinto efanelekileyo yokubukela iintaka ezintle.
Ndingafika njani?
Indlela efanelekileyo yokufikelela kwiLake Atacama kukuba ibhengeze i-excursion kwenye yee-arhente zendawo. Uninzi lwale tyelelo alubandakanyi ukuhamba nje entlango kwaye kufuphi nelakulo, kodwa kwakhona ukutyelela kwimigodi yezimayini ze-lithium. Ukuba uceba ukuhamba ngokuzimela, indlela yakho iya kubonakala ngathi:
- Santiago - San Pedro de Atacama . Umgama phakathi kweedolophu ungaphezu kwe-1500 km, kodwa yonke indlela ihleli ecaleni lasentshonalanga yeChile kwaye ikuvumela ukuba ujabulele ukuthabatha imihlaba endleleni.
- I-San Pedro de Atacama - Ichibi lase-Atacama. Zihlukaniswe ngamakhilomitha angama-50, ezinokutshatyalaliswa ngokulula ngokuthatha imoto kwisixeko sokurenta.
