Geological Park Are Very, Very Real (PHOTOS)
Yes,
we had a hard time believing that this insane mountain formation was actually

The mountains are part of the Zhangye Danxia Landform Geological Park in China. Layers of different colored sandstone and minerals were pressed together over 24 million years and then buckled up by tectonic plates, according to the Telegraph.
Here's a photo showing some detail of the rich "layer cake" action going on.

These mountains are beautiful!
Thanks John for posting such a positive visual to balance out the awakenings to the slavery system.
Though our lives have been a struggle, we do live on a planet with infinite biological life that even when these lives pass on leave a rainbow in the sands testifying to the true beauty life hold here on the Jewel of the galaxy!
The mountains may be very, very, very, very, very real, but the colors depicted here are definitely not at all realistic. For a more realistic view of this area, check this video:
