The Atacama Desert in Chile, one of the driest non-polar deserts on Earth, has unexpectedly turned into a blooming garden. Large areas are covered with vibrant wildflowers, a spectacle that occurs every few years when sufficient rain falls. This year's bloom, triggered by El Niño, is expected to reach its peak in October, covering around 15,000 hectares.
