Incredible landscapes:
In this sublime timelapse video, we can’t help but to be awestruck by this breathtaking locale. First, we get to see images of this incredible countryside during the daytime. Tons of trees, an immense lake, mountains, sand dunes…the night sky has some competition, for sure.
Once night falls, colourful stars take over the sky. You can even see parts of the Milky Way! Even more, the lake acts as a mirror for the galaxies above it.
This place is an absolute must-see for anyone traveling around Chile. So, how soon can we buy our plane tickets?
