Colorful frosting-like terraces — the world’s most enchanting hot springs!
Located at Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park, USA, it is the world’s largest known carbonate-deposit hot spring. Millions of years ago, seawater at the bottom of the Mammoth region left behind thick layers of precipitated limestone. Whenever hot, acidic water flows through the rock layers to the surface of the hot springs, it dissolves large amounts of this precipitated limestone. Upon exposure to air, some of the carbon dioxide in the solution evaporates. At the same time, solid minerals form and eventually settle as pristine travertine, giving the Mammoth Hot Springs area vast terraces that look as if they’re coated in frosting. This unique landscape has also earned Mammoth Hot Springs a spot among the world’s most captivating hot springs.
