Arizona is home to a number of awesome landscapes in the U.S. This almost 300,000-acre place is popular for its rich colorful shale as well as the Navajo sandstone eroded by different elements that created cliffs as high as 3 thousand feet. You can find the Coyote Buttes, that features The Wave, a huge wall of red sandstone twisting and turning naturally!

Salt Flats, Bolivia
Just like what the name says, this awesome white landscape located in
central Bolivia is salt. This place is also called Salar de Uyuni and it is believed to exist 30,000 years back after Lago Minchin totally dried up, and left the salt behind.
Now, you can find 10 billion tons of salt spreading across 4,000
square miles, and it naturally cracks in hexagonal designs. You can visit this amazing wonder in the rainy season (from January until March) and you'll find a thin layer of water spreading on the flats creating an illusion of an endless mirror.
