[SalinasGrandes | A white world that stretches to the horizon, a special stage given to us by nature]

[Salinas Grandes | A white world that continues to the horizon, a special stage given to us by nature] — Approximately 12,000ha in area, approximately 3,500m above sea level. A salt plain with an impressive white land that continues endlessly — The salt layers formed by repeated crustal movements, rain, and evaporation over many years have formed a pure white surface, and it is also called the "Uyuni of South America." On sunny days, the contrast between the infinite white and the blue of the sky is the best . ⸻ 📍[Location] Access by car or tour from Purmalcalmar or Salta City in Jujuy Province via Ruta 52 (distance approximately 70km / time approximately 1.5 hours)  🕰[Recommended time] During the dry season (May to December), the salt surface is hard and beautiful. During the rainy season (January to March), the water fills the area and it becomes a mirror-like surface! The light from morning to afternoon brings out the charm of the scenery. ⸻ ✨Recommended points • The endless white earth is perfect for photos! The reflection when it is mirror-like is especially amazing. • The spot where the salt trench looks like a fantastic blue stream is also popular. • Wild animals such as llamas and vicunas may appear nearby, so you can also encounter nature. ⸻ 🎒Tips and advice • 3,500m above sea level, dry, strong winds, and strong UV rays: jacket, long pants, hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses are essential! • You can go to the back with a guided "Ojo del Salar" tour (about 45 minutes / guide fee is separate)  • Facilities are limited, so it is safe to prepare food, drink, and toilets in advance: don't forget snacks, water, and cash  • If you visit during off-peak times in the morning or early afternoon, there will be fewer people and it will be easier to take photos! #Absolutely free trip #Argentina#Purmamarca

[Sisu Coffee Studio | Casco Viejo's fragrant hideaway cafe] — A sophisticated space where Geisha coffee, whose name means "guts" in Finnish, plays a leading role — This cafe, run by the Lamastus family, opened in 2022 on Corner Street in the old town. In a modern and calm atmosphere, you can enjoy pour-over and tasting (cupping) of Geisha coffee, which is said to be the world's finest ☕️  ⸻ 📍 [Location] A great location on the corner of Calle 9naY and Avenida B. There are many historical spots within walking distance, making it perfect for stopping by during a stroll  🕰️ [Viewing points] Open Wednesday to Saturday from 9:00 to 17:00, Sunday from 9:00 to 18:00, closed Monday and Tuesday. The estimated time required is 30-90 minutes, 1-1.5 hours including cupping ⸻ ✨Recommended points • Geisha coffee: Pour over the world-famous Geisha. The aroma and smoothness are outstanding • Cupping experience: Try 4 types of beans in a wine-like tasting format, and enjoy the differences in aroma  • Design space: The harmony of brick walls, wood and concrete is "stylish" and relaxing • Friendly service: English is available, so even first-timers can feel at ease. The seating is spacious and very comfortable  ⸻ 🎒 Tips • Cupping reservation required: Usually reservations are for 2 or more people. If you are alone, a reservation for 2 people is OK • Morning is recommended: The aroma of the beans is most prominent, and it is less crowded and you can relax • A little on the high end: About $10 per cup. Enjoy it as a luxurious coffee experience • Check out the food menu: The sweets and bread are also popular and go well with coffee  #Panama #PanamaCity #AbsolutelyFreeTrip
