number eight rainbow mountains china
the mythical rainbow mountains of china
within the zhonye dakshiyad landform
geological park

their other worldly colors

diagenetic and mineralogical processes
that make up the reds greens yellows and
blues

coolest places on earth and the planet
seems to agree

world heritage site in 2009

peaks is moraine lake

waterfalls and rock piles

seems unreal

color a vivid shade of turquoise that
changes in intensity through the summer
as the glaciers melt
its brilliant blue-green color is a
result of light refracting off
fine particles of rock in the glacier
runoff which flows into the lake
because it's at an elevation of 6183
feet
the lake doesn't begin to melt until
june which is when water levels rise and
its magical color peak

the groves make for an otherworldly walk

attractive when there is a light wind

pick today's photo was sent to us by a
subscriber wondering about this mythical
waterfall
that looks like it's from paradise if
you come across a mysterious photo
online and want us to look into it just
send it over and we may even feature it
on a future video

sorry to say that it's probably
photoshopped
however there is a waterfall that comes
very close to looking like the one in
this fantasy picture
and that's number two victoria falls
now it may not look exactly like the
imaginary waterfall in the picture
but the real life victoria falls
presents a spectacular sight of
awe-inspiring beauty
and grandeur that would have landed them
on today's list either way
located on the zambenzi river these
magical falls formed the border between
zambia and zimbabwe the kololo tribe who
lived in the area in the eighteen
hundreds
described these falls as mosey ah tonya

thunders it's no wonder they gave it
such an impactful name
considering victoria falls is known as
the greatest curtain of falling water
in the world columns of spray can be
seen from many miles away
and at the height of the rainy season
over a hundred billion gallons of water
over the edge
