Taklamakan Desert Photos
The Takla Makan Desert is situated in the middle of the Tarim Basin. 'Takla Makan' in Uigur language means 'you can get into it but can never get out' so the desert is also called 'the Sea of Death'. It covers an area of over 33, 700 square kilometers (over 13,000 square miles), thus is the world's second largest shifting-sand desert and the largest desert in China.
