    The White Lagoon contains fresh water, so it attracts the surrounding animals to drink. The white color is caused by borax in the water.

      Laguna Blanca is a high Andean lagoon located in the Eduardo Abaroa Andean Fauna Natural Reserve in southwestern Bolivia, in the department of Potosí. The water has a whitish color due to the high mineral content and is therefore called Laguna Blanca. It is located in the Puna area, has a dry climate, has dimensions of 5.6 kilometers long and 3.5 kilometers wide and an area of 10.9 km² at an altitude of more than 4,000 m above sea level and is connected to Laguna Verde by a small strait. The lagoon has a circumference of 22 kilometers.
