Here is a list of 10 amazing waterfalls around the world.
1. Waterfall of fire (Yosemite National Park, California, USA)
Horsetail Falls looked like lava flows down a steep cliff.
Horsetail Falls , also known as " Thac Lua ", flows in winter and the head drops from Mount El Capitan into two separate streams and flows from a height of 478.5m to the sloping rock face, causing water droplets to shoot up. forming a strip of fog before continuing to fall at the foot of the mountain.
During the last two weeks of February, Horsetail waterfall will change color and become " fire waterfall ". This phenomenon occurs when the day is about to die, the rays of the sun will eventually splash on the waterfall and if reflected at a right angle, the short but beautiful scene will take place: a brilliant fire appears, rushing to the ground.
2. Fog waterfall (Djupadal, Iceland)
This waterfall made of very smooth mist along the cliff.
The dense fog created a scene of a waterfall flowing down from the steep cliff in Iceland.
The mist slowly "flows" down the side of the cliff at Djupadal and falls down to the Bredafjodur fjord below. This strange phenomenon is expected to happen when the temperature is reversed , causing the hot air to rise and retain the cold air mass below.
3. Horizontal flow waterfall (Kimberley, Western Australia)
These two horizontal waterfalls are unique in the world!
There are only two waterfalls in the world, and both are deep in Talbot Bay in the Bucaneer Archipelago , in the Western Kimberley region of Western Australia. This natural view includes the two canyons of McLarty Range .
Between these two canyons, a large amount of water is pushed by very strong tidal waves, creating temporary cascades that can be as high as 5m. The flow direction of the water flow will change when the tide changes. Every time the people go up or down, the front of the canyon will accumulate a huge amount of water compared to the amount of water it allows to flow. Therefore, water will flow over the canyon like a waterfall, under the influence of tidal currents.
The speed of water rushing through the canyon is like a waterfall.
4. Thac Bigr (Caraş-Severin County, Romania)
Bigar waterfall is as beautiful as in fairy.
Although it does not stand out with its size and amount of water, it makes this unique Bigă waterfall its very special shape and location. The entire cliff face is covered with moss, water flows through this green surface to a small river called Miniş . Waterfalls are located on the 45th latitude, equidistant from the Equator and the Northernmost point, and are among the most unique waterfalls in the world.
5. Cameron Falls (Alberta, Canada)
Water turns into a beautiful pink.
If you visit Cameron Falls in Lake Waterton National Park, in Alberta, Canada in June, you will have the opportunity to see an extremely rare phenomenon when the entire falls pink.
In spring, downpours will stir up the clay, or Acgilit, into the water. When the light reflects this mineral, the water will turn into a beautiful pink light.
6. Blood waterfall (Antarctic)
This strange phenomenon caused netizens to stir.
At the Mc Murdo Dry Valley of Antarctica, a red waterfall is as high as a five-story building, falling from the glacier Taylor into Lake Bonney.
Of course, that is not true blood like in its name, instead, the main reason is because the five million-year-old lake flows underneath. When glaciers formed on the surface of the lake began to freeze, the water below became salty.
Until now, the amount of salt in the lake at the bottom of Water Falls has been five times more than seawater and salty enough to not freeze. The lake is "stuck" below the ice 0.25 miles and cannot be exposed to air. He had never seen the sun and could not absorb oxygen. The lake is especially rich in iron . When the water from the underground lake leaked through the cracks of the glaciers, this iron-rich water flow suddenly came into contact with the air and rusted immediately, creating red water streaks like blood stains on the ice. when water falls.
7. Domestic waterfall (Mauritius)
This scene is not photoshop!
Of course we all understand that there is no water waterfall in the country. In essence, the waterfall at the coast of Mauritius is just a visual illusion that makes it look like a majestic waterfall flowing in the ocean. Because sand and mud sink deeper into the sea, from the continental shelf to the deep water area created the illusion of waterfalls in the waterfall.
8. Pamukkale Falls (Denizli province, Turkey)
Waterfall combining terraces in Turkey.
Pamukkale Falls (translated into Turkish cotton castle), located in the southwest of Turkey and recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since the 1970s.
The terraces of this famous waterfall are made of lime marble : a kind of carbonate mineral, which is saved by the flow of water. This flawless natural structure is 2700 meters long, 600 meters wide and 160 meters high.
Pamukkale Falls has been used as a natural bath for centuries. Ancient Greeks and Romans discovered the nutritional value of this mineral-rich hot spring. The spring attracts many visitors, not only to nourish the body, but also to see the magical beauty of layers of calcium bicarbonate clumped into layers, spreading over the cliffs.
9. Devil's Kettle Waterfall (at Grand Marais, Minnesota USA)
Devil's Kettle Waterfall also contains many mysteries.
Devil's Kettle Waterfall is a very unusual geological area. Located on the northern edge of Lake Superior , where the Brule River is suddenly divided into two waterfalls. But the odd thing doesn't stop there. One side of the waterfall flowed into the river as usual, and one side flowed into a deep pit and - disappeared. No one has discovered where the water is going. Researchers tried throwing things like table tennis and pouring dye into the wormhole, but no one saw their signs anywhere.
10. Ruby Falls (in Chattanooga, Tennessee)
Fanciful purple dyed waterfalls and surroundings.
Ruby Falls is America's most famous, deepest limestone waterfall and also the most visited underground waterfall in the United States, with more than 400,000 tourists a year.
This 44m tall waterfall is named after Ruby Lambert, the wife of the person who discovered it. Waterfalls contain a lot of magnesium ore, so if people drink enough water here, they will have to go on a regular basis (because magnesium is considered a natural laxative).
