Rainbow hills attract nature enthusiasts in Erzurum

Erzurum's Rainbow Hills in the Oltu district of Turkiye are a striking natural wonder featuring vivid red, orange, and yellow mineral layers dating back 45 million years. Forming through wind, erosion, mineral deposits, and tectonic shifts, similar vibrant landforms are rare globally, with comparable prominent sites mostly found in China.
