Grand Prismatic Spring→The beautiful surface of the earth~God's overturned palette

Located in Yellowstone Park, the Grand Prismatic Spring is the largest hot spring in the United States and the third largest in the world, with a width of 75-91 meters and a depth of 49 meters, and it gushes out about 2000 liters of 71-degree hot water every minute. In 1871, it was discovered by geologists and named Grand Prismatic for its striking colors. It is named 'the most beautiful surface of the earth'. Walking along the wooden plank road built in the park towards the Grand Prismatic Spring, it seems to have left the earth and entered another planet. It is formed by the Firehole River, which is formed by countless hot springs gushing out. Under the sunlight, a large area around the Grand Prismatic with wrinkles on the ground emits magical reflections. It's incredible! The bright blue-green-yellow-orange-brown forms a strange and deep big eye on the surface of the earth, making you unable to move your eyes. ✅Two ways to open the Grand Prismatic Spring Close view There is a pedestrian wooden plank road around the Grand Prismatic Spring, which takes about 40 minutes to walk around. Come and see the local part of the Grand Prismatic Spring. It is not only the hot spring pool that is beautiful, but the surroundings are really too magical, like a big eye, with long eyelashes. Once again, it is simply outer space, there is such a magical place on earth! Walking near the close-view plank road of the Grand Prismatic Spring, you can clearly see the texture it leaves on the surface of the earth. It looks beautiful from a distance, and there is a sense of vicissitudes and mystery when you look close. In the Grand Prismatic Spring pool, it is in the mist, with a strong smell of sulfur, which makes me remember this place with smell. It feels like being in a palette, with all kinds of colors. If I hadn't come in person, I wouldn't dare to imagine the surface of the earth so boldly. Distant view To find this viewing platform, you need to continue south from the Grand Prismatic viewpoint for 1-2 miles, there is a Fairy Fall Trail sign on the right, enter a not too large parking lot to park, and then follow the Trail all the way forward for about 10 minutes, until there is a small fork in the road, the left is the viewing platform of the Grand Prismatic, I remember the sign says overview, the right road continues to run Fairy Fall Trail, after turning left, about another 10 minutes walk, the whole journey is about 1.6 miles. Sunny day strategy☀ The best visiting season is from to every year, try to avoid going on cloudy days with a lot of water vapor. When I went, the weather was too good, I saw the most beautiful look of the Grand Prismatic as I wished, almost cloudless, the blue sky made the Grand Prismatic Spring bluer and clearer.
