Since 1998, the Hotel Palacio Del Sal, or “The Salt Palace,” has earned the title of one of the most original hotels in the world, inviting guests to discover the wholly unique experience of luxury accommodations made entirely of salt — yes, you heard that right. Everything from the furniture to the walls to the ceilings consists solely of the naturally-occurring mineral. Initially located in the middle of a nearby lake, the hotel was moved to the banks of the Salar in 2004 to provide guests with more luxurious services. The Palacio also pays tribute to its unique site, featuring local art, furniture, and salt pillars that serve as reflections of the incredible architectural prowess represented by the building.
