Do you remember Heidi, whom we used to watch with pleasure in our youth, running over the green hills? The natural formations that open and breathe horizons as they look have always left deep beauties in people’s minds. The first thing that came to mind was Bliss, the Windows XP wallpaper, which has had this feel on computers for years. Well, what features of hills attract attention in the world, have you thought?
The Napa-California Bliss wallpaper was created by photographer Charles O’Rear in California in 1996. For the frame that calms millions of people by showcasing the shades of green and blue, Charles stated that on one of the days when it often rained had a beautiful view and that he could not remain indifferent. He even prophesied that “People 15 and older will remember this photo for the rest of their lives”. Tuscany, Italy Photos taken by Dutch photographer Albert Dros during his visit to Tuscany, Italy, look too much like Windows XP’s Bliss wallpaper. Indeed, the first impression is that this place is XP.Gora Region, Kosovo Gora Region are mountain villages in the south of Kosovo’s Prizren province. Gora literally means mountaineer and the people living in the region are from the ancient Islamic Turkish tribes.Erzurum, Turkey The hills in the Oltu district of Erzurum, which attract the attention of those who see them with their iridescent colors, took their place in the list as a corner of our country that arouses curiosity. The reasons such as climate and erosion in the Himalayan mountain belt have led to the rise of these hills. Work is underway to include it in a Geopark in the future.Iğdır Türkiye The next interesting hill comes from our country, Iğdır. The hills in the west of Tuzluca district contain shades of red, brown, gray and yellow. At the same time, the hills in Nakhchivan and Iran are a gift of nature to us, as is the formation in Erzurum.National Geopark – China The Danxia National Geopark, located in the Gansu region of China, has often been confused with the hills in Erzurum and reported. This gigantic natural formation, spread over a total of 520 million square meters, is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. This formation, which is known to correspond to 55 million years old, attracts the attention of all tourists from all over the world.Vinicunca, Peru Our last colored hill is Montana de Siete Colores, which means seven colors and is located in the Cusco region of Peru, although the name is mountain. It takes a bit of a tough journey to get here. First a bus ride of 3 hours and then 10 km of walking and climbing. So, has the secret to being so colorful been explained? As a result of the melting of the glacier that covered the mountain, soils formed in different layers and successive bands that resembled rainbows were formed. Vinicunca, a branch of the Andes Mountains, was discovered in 2016. I think it’s pretty hard to believe without seeing it with the naked eye. Source: Cengiz Selcuk – Brandlifemag
