千游阁主Big Prism Grand Prismatic Spring, one of the most famous hot springs in Yellowstone Park. Big Prism is a representative work of Yellowstone, like a business card of Huangshan's welcoming pine. People can never go to Huangshan, but you must have seen the image of the welcoming pine; Similarly, people may not have been to Yellowstone, but the panorama of the Great Prism must have appeared on the top US tourism list. The colorful prism, about 100 meters in diameter, is the largest and third largest hot spring in the United States, nearly 50 meters deep, the water temperature is as high as 85 ℃, and 2,000 liters of spring water are poured out every minute. In the rainy sky, it looks more steamy. The angle that pedestrians can see is a side plane, not the panoramic view of the air seen on the major brochures. But even if it is only a corner, it has felt its momentum, and there is a feeling of not knowing the true face of Lushan, just being in this mountain. There is another kind of general God-level scenery that will not be easy to see. The whole day of sightseeing, just a few minutes of staying here, it rained, the climate at this time, the wind and rain, people feel in the arms of nature, with the sky clouds, the wind and rain, the chic. I have always believed that all encounters during the journey are fate, and enjoy the full experience of the wind and rain and heat between the world. Here, it is a classic! The following paragraph is heard on the Internet: "The beauty of the big prism hot spring is that the color of the lake changes with the season, and in spring, the lake changes from green to brilliant orange red, which is due to microorganisms such as algae and pigment-containing bacteria living in mineral-rich water bodies. The ratios of chlorophyll and carotenoids in their bodies change with the seasons, so the water body takes on a different color. "So, in the summer we arrive, the chlorophyll content here is relatively low, showing orange, red, or yellow. But in winter, due to lack of light, these microorganisms produce more chlorophyll to inhibit the color of carotenoids, so they see the water body appear dark green. Compared with the big prism, there are three small hot springs around, although there is no big prism atmosphere, but still exquisite and beautiful.
