A Giant Lake With Sea Water

The Caspian is the biggest lake on Earth, though its water is salty, like in a real sea. Water washes salt out of rocks and soil, and it stays in the lake, because the water evaporates but the salt doesn't. It is so huge that more than a hundred Lake Balkhashes would fit in it, and you can't see the shore, as if you were standing by the ocean.
