The river is also known by the locals as Ngu Sac river or Cau Vong river, due to its various colors. At the time of the transition between the rainy and dry seasons, a tree grows in the river named green macarenia turning bright red, yellow orange and dark brown. These colors stand out on the golden background of the sand in the river, moss green, the green of the water and the dark patches from the rocks have given this river a very special name.

In addition to the region's striking colors and incredible biodiversity, Cano Cristales flows through the world's oldest rocks - the Guiana Shield, with a life of up to 1.2 billion years.

'Blood' waterfall on Taylor Glacier lake

Antarctica is often not the image you think of when talking about a 'paradise' scene, but ignoring the harshness of the weather, the landscape here is also quite beautiful. People have just begun to explore this continent and there are countless mysteries under the ice here. A striking example is Blood Falls. Prominent in the middle of a white ice lake, suddenly a stream of water rained like a waterfall, more specifically, it was blood red.

Shortly after being discovered by explorer Thomas Griffith Taylor in 1911, scientists found the truth about this strange waterfall. It originates from a groundwater lake located 400 meters below the surface of the iceberg with a high content of salt and iron. When this iron-rich water stream is exposed to air, iron hydroxides react immediately and give us a blood-colored waterfall.

Beppu hot spring

White Hell

Beppu, Japan is also known as one of the largest hot springs in the world, with the number of more than 2,500 streams in the region, second in the world after Yellowstone in the United States. Beppu has 9 geothermal hotspots called "Nine Hell of Beppu" by locals . It is divided into 8 main spring water areas, each with its own separate point. The 'Blood Hell' area , with high iron content, makes the water turn red. And Hell Hell is home to about 80 crocodiles, Hell White has high boric acid content that makes spring water like a milk stream . People who come here to visit can boil vegetables and eggs right in these colorful streams.

Spotted lake

Spotted Lake is located in the Okanagan Valley located on the southern border of Columbia. For thousands of years, Aboriginal tribes here have lived and fought in this area and their legends still exist today. One of them was the battle that occurred in the hills around Spotted Lake. At that time, both sides agreed to stop the war and allow their men to bathe in this lake. It is not necessarily cleansing the body as people think, it also has unexpected healing effects. There are over 11 different minerals, including calcium, magnesium, small amounts of tiatan and silver. In the summer, when the water in the lake evaporates, the minerals precipitate and form pits with different colors that look very beautiful.

Panjin Red Sea

The Red Sea is located in the Liaohe River Delta region, about 30km southwest of Panjin City, China. The reason it is so called is because of its appearance, which is caused by a seagrass that grows in salty alkaline soil. This weed starts to grow and grow during April or May and remains green during the summer. But in the fall, this weed turned to a brilliant red color, making the beach look like it was covered with an endless red carpet, creating a very special and rare sight. The Red Sea is a nature reserve and only a small area is open to welcome tourists.

Lake Travertine in Pamukkale

One of the most unique attractions in the world is the Travertine pools in Pamukkale, which look like clouds. Travertine is a type of limestone found in many hot springs in the world. And when the hot spring flows to the surface, they form a cascading structure that keeps the hot water in it. It has created a beautiful scene for the Pamukkale region, with white limestone and blue water streams. According to ancient legend, these waters can also be used to treat high blood pressure, heart disease, rheumatism .

Zhangye Danxia

The Zhangye Danxia Geopark in southwestern China deserves a true 'paradise' . The mass of mountains with vivid colors like a painter painted up. In fact, these colors come from red sandstone and natural mineral deposits formed more than 24 million years ago. Each of the colored stripes is made of a mineral and over the years it forms layers and creates a strange scene here. Thanks to the unique terrain, the Zhangye Danxia Geopark was recognized by UNESSCO as a world cultural heritage in 2010.

Lake Retba

There are many 'beautiful' names for this lake, but most all refer to its distinctive color - pink. Retba Lake is located in Senegal and is separated from the Atlantic Ocean by a thin strip of sand dunes. Due to the small geographical difference, an algae called Dunaliella salina has proliferated and developed in the warm waters of the lake. With a high salt content equal to the Dead Sea, Retba Lake meets all the conditions to attract a large number of these algae. To survive in such an environment, Dunaiella has to produce a red pigment that helps them absorb sunlight and produce carotene, which acts as an anti-salt antibiotic. The more salty the area (especially in the dry season), the redder and redder they are, so many people name this place Bloody Lake.

Lencois Maranhenses

An oasis in the desert can create a very beautiful setting, but they are often rare and away from the driest areas in the world. Lencois Marahenses National Park is the exact opposite of this. Located in northeast Brazil, completely covered by sand, this 155,000-acre park is not a desert although it looks like that.

It is located just outside the Amazon rainforest and receives the same rainfall in this wet forest. Heavy rains have created a strange phenomenon: fresh water gathers in valleys amidst white sand dunes, forming beautiful green and blue swamps, creating extremely focal points interesting for Lencois Maranhensses National Park.

Another interesting feature of Lencois Maranhenses National Park is that this area still has many types of fish, although in the dry season, all these swamps are gone. The reason for this is because seabirds brought eggs in the migration process. Therefore, local people Lencois Maranhenses often live by catching fish during the rainy season. When the dry season comes, some people go to other places to make a living.
