The Salt Road gets its name from the centuries-old salt pans that line the route. These salt pans have been a crucial part of the local economy for centuries and have left an indelible mark on the landscape. The salt pans are especially active during the summer months when the sun's heat and strong winds aid in the salt crystallization process. The unique pink and white hues of the salt pans are a captivating sight, and the area is an important center for salt production.
