Description
The rising full moon at sunset seen from the famous Valle de la Luna / Moon Valley near San Pedro de Atacama in northern Chile. The peaks in the center background are the conical Licancabur (L, 5915m / 19,410ft) and Juriques (R, 5705m / 18,715ft) volcanos on the Bolivian border. On the left are the cliffs of a rock formation called El Anfiteatro / The Amphitheatre, the tourist descending the trail bottom left should have a great view! The Atacama Desert is the world's driest and probably oldest desert. In some areas rain has never been recorded, geological research suggests the region has been continuously arid for many millions of years.
