Rainbow mountain, a secret geological wonder of China

Rainbow mountain, a secret geological wonder of China

Located in Gansu province, China, this 300 square kilometer rainbow is part of Zhangye Danxia Landform Geological Park. The hills and valleys consist of layers of red, blue, emerald green, brown and yellow. Even so, there are no plants or animals found there because of the barren land conditions. In addition to its colorful mountains, Zhangye Danxia also has caves hidden behind hills. Because of its unique natural conditions, UNESCO's World Heritage Committee included this mountain in the list of World Heritage Sites in 2010.

Rainbow mountain, a secret geological wonder of China

This amazing natural phenomenon is an example of petrographic geomorphology formed due to environmental conditions. According to the Telegraph, the amazing colors of the hills come from red sandstone and minerals formed since the Cretaceous Period, precisely 24 million years ago. These rock formations then undergo a shift in tectonic plates that also form the Himalayas. Rain and wind that hit the area for millions of years also contributed to shaping the niche, valleys and Danxia Zhangye color patterns. It is said that this mountain will display a different color pattern, depending on weather conditions.

Perast, Montenegro

Throughout history, many have struggled to conquer this place (Byzantine Empire, Venetian and Hungarian, French, Austrian …). Each has left a significant mark on this marvelous, beautiful little place. Our Lady of the Rocks (Gospa od Škrpjela) sits on a man-made island. The story begins on July 22, 1452: two sailors, returning to Perast from a difficult voyage, discovered an icon of the Madonna and Child resting on a rock in a shallow part of the Bay. No visit to Perast would be complete without taking a boat trip (leaves regularly from the quay) to the islands of St George and Our Lady of the Rocks. They both have a chapel. Legend has it that Our Lady of the Rocks was built after some sailor’s found a picture of the Virgin Mary on a rock in the middle of the bay.
