Description
The Salt Mines of Maras in Peru feature a network of thousands of small salt pools on a terraced hillside. These pools use an evaporative process to extract salt from a subterranean stream rich in minerals. The white salt contrasts with the earthy tones of the surrounding mountains. Traditional structures with tiled roofs are situated nearby, providing operational support. Lush greenery is interspersed among the rugged Andean landscape, highlighting the unique combination of natural beauty and traditional salt harvesting techniques.
