Kelimutu Flores, the Magnificent Three Coloured Lake

Good day dear steemit friends. Here I am giving you a video about the magnificent island of Flores.  From the west to the east of teh island, full of wonderful stories and tradition, striving the adrenalin to explore its natural beauty. 

Mt Kelimutu National Park is the smallest among six national parks in the stretch between Bali and the Nusa Tenggara islands. Its size obviously does not matter much when it offers one of the most spectacular wonders that nature has to offer. There are three lakes on the mountain sharing the same name, Kelimutu, meaning ‘the boiling lake’.

Each has its own colors and a local name. But all are believed to be the resting place of departed souls.  Kelimutu lakes are unpredictable as to when and what color they will change into. Sometimes, the colors are blue, green, and black, and some other times they turn to white, red, and blue. The last time a traveler saw them, one was dark brown, just like a pond of chocolate. Previously, the east lake was red and the middle lake was blue.
