Name: Caño Cristales

Location: Serrania de la Macarena , Colombia

Interesting facts:

Caño Cristales is a Colombian river and is commonly called the "River of Five Colors" or the "Liquid Rainbow", and is even referred to as the most beautiful river in the world due to its striking colors.

The bed of river in the end of July through November is variously colored yellow, green, blue, black, and especially red, the last caused by the Macarenia clavigera(Podostemaceae) on the bottom of the river.

Caño Cristales is a fast river with many rapids and waterfalls. Often in the bed have formed small circular pits - giant's kettles, which have been formed by pebbles or chunks of harder rocks.

Name: Morning Glory Pool

Location: Yellowstone National Park, Teton County, Wyoming, USA

Interesting facts:

[emoji770] Morning Glory Pool is a hot spring in the Yellowstone Upper Geyser Basin of the United States.

[emoji770] The distinct color of the pool is due to bacteria which inhabit the water. On a few rare occasions the Morning Glory Pool has erupted as a geyser, usually following an earthquake or other nearby seismic activity.

[emoji770] The Morning Glory Pool suffers from inconsiderate visitors who have thrown coins, bottles, and trash into the pool for over a century.

[emoji770] The trash has slowly built up and blocked some of the thermal vents and reduced the heat of the pool, allowing other bacteria to begin working their way in at the edges, creating a red and yellow ring around the pure blue center.

[emoji770] While this rainbow hue is indeed beautiful, it is a fragile beauty, as the invasive yellow bacteria continues to close in.

[emoji770] Recently, however, the pool has started to go by another name “Fading Glory.”

[emoji770] The inner hall and the shrine reflect the style of the Eastern Badami Chalukyas, while the outer hall represents the style of the Kalyani Chalukyas of the west.

[emoji770] The inner hall has massive pillars and the bays are decorated with lotus designs. On one side of the doorway of the shrine stands Goddess Ganga, riding the makara, while on the other side is river Yamuna. She is depicted as riding the tortoise.
