Introduction to tourism characteristics of Duz:

Gleiter Salt Lake (C Hottel Jerid), located in the west of Dusi, is the largest desert salt lake in the world. East-west length 120km, north-south width 60km, altitude 16m. It covers an area of nearly 5000 square kilometers. Although it is called a lake, there are no vast lakes and blue waves here because of the hot sunshine, rapid evaporation, the highest salt content in the world and too little rainwater to supplement. This dry lake is160km long and 22km wide. It was uplifted by orogeny in the early stage. It is said that shark bones were found at the bottom of the lake, which proves that it used to be an ocean in ancient times. When the sun is strong, you can see a mirage in the desert. In the past, many camel teams crossing the Sahara desert lost their way because they were attracted by a mirage.
