turkish you will find over a dozen water terraces which are noted as being some of the most spectacular in the world white traversed in limestone hosts the hot spring waters which most comfortable temperatures of between 95 to 212 degrees while visitors used to be able to bathe in the travertine pools of Turkey that's now no longer a possibility instead you can visit take photos then retreat to the newly formed tourist Township with pools cafes and accommodation to take your fancy the travertine pools of Turkey are a natural phenomenon with thermal waters against the mountainous backdrop they're accessible from the road from Deniz Lee and offer uninterrupted views of the land below number 13 fly geyser Nevada USA who would have thought that a beautiful attraction could be made by accident that was the reality on a private ranch in Nevada near State Route 34 is the fly geyser which came to exist after irrigation opportunities were explored near the Black Rock Desert in Nevada the well was drilled which found so much water that it shot up from the dark depths of the earth and meters into the air however at around 200 degrees it was far too hot for crop irrigation and the well was abandoned over the next few decades the water continued to spew out from below the Earth's surface creating a cone of calcium carbonate in its wake in the early 1960s a geothermic Energy Company saw the opportunity for energy production they've drilled a second well near the first that produced water around the same temperature however it wasn't hot enough for their needs so they capped the well they didn't do a great job though and water continued to flow from as many gaps as it could find with the drilling of these two wells a beautiful conical formation has appeared it's a mineral rich attraction that stands 12 feet high and wide and is covered in multicolored algae it's a sight to behold because it was on private land eager visitors had to pay a fee and receive permission to see it however The Burning Man project purchased the ranch in 2016 and renamed it from fly ranch to fly geyser they now offer organized tours to view it number twelve rainbow mountain Peru it's not uncommon for children's artwork to feature rainbows and bright colors but you never think that mountains could form those same colors your kids fridge worthy works of art may be closer to reality than you think especially if you venture into Peru rainbow mountain or Montana de siete colores the mountain of seven colors is in Peru's Cusco region in the Andes while it's a bit of a challenge to get to it with a three hour drive and a six mile hike it'll be well worth it when you finally arrive unlike other mountains that feature dull nature like colors this mountain is all about vibrancy it features stunning shades of yellows reds purples and greens and looks like kids have been let loose with a bucket of salt according to researchers the mountain gets its color from water mixing with minerals the rust creates red yellow comes from iron sulphide green comes from chloride and purple is either from oxidized limonite or geosite the mountain is featured on national Geographics list of the top 100 places to visit and continues to attract thousands of people yearly it's about half the altitude of Mount Everest and features around 14 different colors while you might need to be a reasonably experienced hiker to see it in its full beauty it'll be worth every sweaty step you take number 11 where toe mosquito where'd we go the puerto mosquito bioluminescent bay on the island of Vieques in Puerto Rico is so extraordinary that you'll hardly believe it exists in fact it's also so rare that there are only five Bay's like it in the world and three are in Puerto Rico where tow mosquito is at the top of the list of the best bioluminescent bays to visit you might think that this Bay is like any other pretty water with a tropical backdrop but wait until you see it at night it glows the blue glow over the bay is caused by microorganisms called dinoflagellates they shine when anything touches or disturbs them which is most often fish even how fragile this ecosystem is there's only one Bay like it we're swimming is allowed and it doesn't shine nearly as brightly as those that don't know how women given it's dimness there may even come a time where it no longer glows at all if you want to experience where to mosquito and all its beauty then the best time to visit is the first two days after a full moon it's also at its best when the night sky is at its darkest and you should probably bring your camera too because no one's gonna believe that this attraction exists without you showing them proof number 10 Mendenhall ice caves Alaska USA some of the world's best-kept secrets are beautiful natural attractions that are hard to access the men in hall ice caves in Alaska USA are no exception the 13 mile frozen formation of caves is 12 miles from Juneau and forms part of the Tongass National Forest while views of the glacier are easy enough to come by from visitors making their way to Alaska they are not so easy to get up close and personal to access the men and haul ice caves you must take a kayak journey followed by a hiking trip but once you get there it'll be entirely worth it the ice caves most a stunning and vibrant blue shades that you can't compare to any other natural attraction you've seen glacial rain rushes into streams surrounding the caves and the land surrounding it is home to spawning salmon bears beavers and mountain goats the isolated location of the caves not to mention the serene environment in which to explore means you need to allow at least six hours to appreciate this attraction fully as the caves are slippery you'll also need the best gear and an experienced guide so while this is a mysterious place you won't believe actually exists it's one that very few people will ever get to experience in person as well number 9 red beach ponds in China any Beach of any color is an attraction for most people after all it's where you go on a beautiful summer's day for fun in the Sun however red Beach in ponds in China is no ordinary Beach in fact its name is quite deceiving because it's not a beach at all but it is red red Beach is 18 mile southwest of pond gin city in dawa County in the northeast province of loud Ning even though it's called red Beach it's actually a read covered wetland in the liaohe river Delta one of the largest areas of its kind the expansive wetland is a state protected natural reserve which has a viewing area for visitors and a 6500 foot wooden jetty the goal of the Chinese government is to offer non-invasive views of the wetlands without damaging the flora and fauna that call it home the weeds that covers the landscape is known as seep weed and it's common in coastal areas in early spring it's a beautiful green shade before turning Jade in summer during its peak viewing season and summer to fall around August to October it bursts to life in a myriad of different crimson use red Beach is a sight to behold but it's important not to get too close this attraction is accessible via most modes of transport but it's a valuable layover spot for around 250 species of birds that migrate from Asia to Australia protected and endangered species are among them such as the Saunders gull and red crane around four hundred wildlife species in total call red Beach home all attracted by the fish and aquatic flora in the area if you get a chance to view red Beach in person you will be blown away by its vibrancy but as you are told as a child look but don't touch number 8 Lake Hillier Australia Lake Hillier in Australia is a body of water that looks so delicious you wish you could drink it instead of clear blue or shades of green this lake is pink just like a strawberry milkshake the lake which is better viewed from the air as it's a protected natural reserve is in the south of Western Australia in recherche archipelago near the coast of middle island the only way to visit is with permission which is hard to get the reason for the colouring is not 100% known but the microorganisms that live in it are thought to be the cause do know Louella Salina is a microorganism that love salt and generates energy by using the light spectrum they also create beta-carotene such as that in carrots which may offer that delicious looking bubblegum color yellow philic bacteria in the lake salt crust produced the same carotenoid pigment which can either be the primary cause of the coloring or just one of them whatever the reason it's a beautiful part of Australia that the government is doing all they can to protect for its future number seven The Devil's Bridge reckless peruca Germany Greco's Brooke is a sight to behold also known as The Devil's Bridge Rock oats brew k dates back to 1860 and his man-made with rocky spires pointed rocks and much thought into how it would look once it was built looking at it today you will be amazed at how the arch reflects against the glassy water to form a perfect circle it's almost as if man wasn't involved in its creation at all right which is precisely how it got its name Greco's brew cake among many other bridges refer to as The Devil's Bridge is thought to be so beautifully crafted that surely only the devil himself could have done it stories have been told throughout generations in Europe about how people would sell their souls to help build a bridge or how the first person to cross the bridge would lose their life to pay for the devil's helping hand while the stories are of course unlikely to be accurate you can't deny echoes brew K's beauty to preserve this beautiful structure crossing the bridge is prohibited however you are more than welcome to view it from afar on your next visit to cram Laur park in germany number 6 the Sentinels of the arctic finland imagine a field full of towering soft-serve cones then look at a picture of the Sentinels of the Arctic in Finland or isn't all too much of a difference once the blanket of winter falls on the Finnish region of Lapland previously green trees in an equally as green field become one shade of light and it's pretty astounding you might not think it's all that intriguing to see snow on trees but Lapland is something just that little bit different both ice and snow cling to the branches of the trees to form giant cloud like shapes that act as guardians of the land such is the beauty of this setting that photos taken by Italian photographer Nicola bonfá neeti in negative 40 degree temperatures were chosen as image of the day on the NASA APOD website believe it or not while Lapland looks devoid of life and barren in winter it is anything but fish move around as usual below a layer of ice while even mammals have adapted to survive then within a few months greenery begins to sprout through once more waving goodbye to the ice cream man and his giant soft-serve trees number 5 abraham lake canada abraham lake in canada is kind of a bittersweet attraction it is undeniably beautiful which is why thousands of people make the trip to see it but the reason it is such an attraction has to do with dangerous explosive gases which can be harmful to both people and the environment abraham lake was the result of the Bighorn dams construction in 1972 it became the largest man-made lake even if it looks like any other glacial lake in the area however because it used to be home to plant life before becoming a lake organic matter from plants and animals causes methane gas to flow to its surface when winter strikes those bubbles of gas freeze to create astounding looking frozen bubbles on the lakes surface they're definitely photo early but what do they mean the bubbles freeze and stack on top of each other but when the lake unfreezes in the spring the methane is released into the air methane which is a greenhouse gas is around 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide in the atmosphere its effect on the environment is bad enough but methane is also highly flammable if you light a match on the lake surface a surprising burst of flames can occur there's no denying abraham lake in the winter is worthwhile to see but the bigger picture of what it can mean is better sweet at best number four blood Falls Antarctica it's the stuff of nightmares a seemingly innocent waterfall but instead of water blood flows from it well not quite but it sure looks like it Antarctic scientist Griffith Taylor discovered the blood falls in Antarctica in 1911 to come across a 5-story glacier leaking blood must have been pretty scary but Griffith with a natural head for science was keen to find out more about it not run away in horror as others might he discovered that the red coloring comes from a saltwater lake trapped around 1,300 feet under the glacier that is thought to be millions of years old in that water are 17 different microbes which is as astounding as the blood-red water scientists up until that point had no idea that anything could survive in such inhospitable conditions however they now have a few theories as to why and hope their existence could shed some light on whether or not other forms of life on other planets could also survive somewhere that was sought to be inhospitable for everyone and everything as well could it be time to move to Mars number three Crystal Caves naica mine Mexico when you think of what's buried nearly 1,000 feet below a mountain you usually think of dirt and you know give me some rock after all there's surely not a lot more than that right good if you're talking about the Sierra they make a mountain in Chihuahua Mexico you can expect dozens of feet of crystals instead the giant crystal cave below the mountain was first discovered in 2000 and it was full of Salina crystals but these were just small crystals they were tens of feet long and growing in temperatures above 136 degrees they weren't there overnight either it's thought that through a series of natural events they've been growing for upwards of 500 to 900 thousand years however you can't just go in and you know have a look at these crystals or Navis sample for yourself because of the near 100% humidity entering the cave is hazardous for your health stay there too long and fluid can condense inside your lungs since their discovery the scientific community has been draining water from the caves but the structural integrity of the crystals may be at risk this attraction may not be open to the public but it's astounding to think that a real-life cave of crystals actually exists number two the spotted Lake British Columbia Canada you've probably learned by now that leaks are not always clear blue or green they can be blood red pink purple or any color that microorganisms can cause them to be but the lake northwest of Osoyoos in British Columbia acha Megan Valley is simply something altogether different it's spotty and most parts of the year the lake looks like any other but when summer sees the evaporation of the water within it that is when the spots form the lake is home to hundreds of yellow blue and green spots with minerals such as magnesium sulfate sodium and calcium that have come from surrounding hills indigenous people from the Okanagan nation have long sought the spotted lake is a sacred place with each circle representative of different healing properties then during World War one tons of salt were mined from the lake each day to manufacture ammunition which means the lake is now not as vibrant or beautiful as it once was today it's classified as a culturally in the ecologically sensitive area which means the lake is fenced off to the public you can get a pretty decent look at it from the highway though number one salar de uyuni salt flats bolivia the salar de uyuni salt flats or the world's largest mirror as they are also known are a pretty popular attraction in bolivia they allow photographers to flex their creative muscles and they are also a pretty outstanding natural attraction the salt flats span for four thousand square miles and are home to dormant volcanoes wildlife like flamingos and even islands covered in cacti believe it or not the salt flats didn't always exist as they do today mysteriously they were entire the underwater and formed part of a giant prehistoric Lake around 42,000 years ago when it dried up it split into smaller lakes of which salar de uyuni was one it contains sodium potassium magnesium borax and around 70% of the world's lithium reserves you can find this inspiring attraction nearly 12,000 feet above sea level near the peak of the andes in potosi southwest bolivia talk about insane these mysterious places around the world are astounding and will surely appear on your list of places to explore on your next global adventure can you think of any others that deserve to be on the list also check out our other cool stuff shown up on screen right now see you next time
