That’s why ekotravels.com presents some well-known destinations where you can take incredible photos that will dazzle travel lovers.
The first is Caño Cristales, located in the Serranía de La Macarena, a natural wonder created by a river’s crystalline waters that reveal yellow, blue, green, red, and black colors. It is caused by a phenomenon that occurs thanks to an aquatic plant. In addition to the spectacular panoramic view, there are hundreds of species of birds, amphibians, and reptiles, among other animals. A real gem to discover.
Another impressive landscape to photograph is the Sanctuary of Las Lajas, located in Ipiales in the Department of Nariño, it can be considered the most beautiful church in all of Colombia. Its Gothic architecture on a bridge surrounded by nature with two arches that cross a river, makes it a majestic structure that never goes unnoticed.
