As I stepped out of the Toyota Land Cruiser, it felt like walking on shattered glass. Spinning around, all I could see was a white void stretching to the horizon, a surreal, almost lunar landscape. It struck me that this might be the closest the planet has to complete, timeless nothingness; from pre-Incan peoples to the present day, humanity has made almost no impression on this endless expanse of white.
当我从那辆丰田陆地巡洋舰上下来的时候,感觉像是踩在了一片碎玻璃上。四下环顾,我只能说是一望无际的白色,那种超现实的感觉,就好像是到了月球上。我突然意识到,这里或许是这个星球上最接近永恒虚无的地方;从古印加时代到今天,人类文明对这一片无穷无尽的白色空间几乎没有造成一点影响。
Covering some 4,000 square miles at an altitude of 3,650m, the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia is the world’s largest salt flat. It has long been a popular destination for backpackers, who come and stay in the handful of basic hotels around its perimeter and make day-trip excursions out into the salty desert. Now, though, travellers can stay right in the middle of the mesmerising emptiness, camping out in a shiny Airstream caravan.
大约占地4000平方英里,海拔3650米,玻利维亚的乌尤尼盐沼(Salar de Uyuni)是世界上最大的盐滩。这里一直都是背包客们的热门旅行目的地,他们住在盐沼周边的那些设施简陋的旅馆里,然后到盐沼里来个一日游。不过现在,旅行者们还能深入这迷人的虚无世界中心,在一辆擦得锃亮的清风房车(Airstream)中露营。
