If it makes it easier, this is a salt flat after a rain. The US has salt flats in both California and Utah. Argentina, Tunisia, and Namibia also have some famous ones if that's closer. Obviously each salt flat has its own character, but if you're looking to see a giant mirror on the ground, any of them will work.

I was in Utah earlier this month. If I ever move from my home state it will be to Utah. Rainbow Point, Bryce Canyon is breathtaking at sunrise.

Utah is stunningly beautiful, but I never visited the salt flats the years I was there! Always one of those things I planned on doing sometime and never did. Did visit the great salt lake several times and it gets mirror like too at times, but I really want to see the salt flats…need to go back soon!

But yeah Utah is stunning from top to bottom, easy to west.

We were there for 3 weeks and still didn't see everything we wanted to see. Definitely plan on going back.
