Today, the editor will introduce to you a unique scene in the world, which will definitely open your eyes!
There are many rivers in the world, most of them are clear and have a single color. In Colombia, there is such a magical river, displaying red, yellow, blue, orange, green and other colors, like a rainbow falling into the river.
Rainbow is the most beautiful river in the world. It’s called “Rainbow River”. Have you heard about it?
The Rainbow River is located in the mountains of central Colombia, with a total length of about 100 km and a width of about 20 meters. Every August, shortly after the rainy season ends in the Meta region of Colombia, the river begins to flow slowly. At this time, the river bottom begins to appear in many different colors, which are very bright and have great decorative value.
They move with the water, change with the waves and are beautiful.
Why does it have so many colors? Some people believe that the river has many seaweeds of many different colors and that the seaweed will have many different colors when floating on the bottom of the river. In fact, it is mainly due to a special aquatic plant called “macarina”. Macarena is very exotic and requires just the right amount of water and sunlight to achieve such beautiful colors.
Therefore, if you want to see the beauty of the river, you must choose the right time.
And the strange thing is that this river has no fish, because the Rainbow River passes through areas rich in various minerals, leading to water with many types of minerals, fish will die from lack of nutrition. Of course, people cannot drink it. The beauty of the Rainbow River was not discovered until the 1950s. It reached its heyday in the 1980s.
Because many people visited and camped here, the river turned black and closed for nearly 30 years, and it was not reopened until 2009.
To protect the fragile ecological landscape here, only 200 people are allowed into this scenic spot every day, and there is also a strict and strange rule, which is that visitors are not allowed to wear makeup! No makeup, no sunscreen, not even perfume, otherwise the staff won’t let you in.
