Chott el Jerid is a large salt flat located in southern Tunisia. It is known for its stunning landscapes, characterized by vast expanses of white salt crusts and unique geological formations. The area is a remnant of an ancient lake that has long since dried up, creating a striking contrast between the bright salt and the surrounding desert. The salt flat is also famous for its mirages, which can create the illusion of water on the surface. Chott el Jerid attracts tourists and photographers, especially during sunrise and sunset when the colors of the sky reflect beautifully on the salt.
