πΊπΈ The Pink Salt Lake in Salt Lake City, Utah πποΈ
In Salt Lake City, the capital of Utah, we visited Stansbury Viewpoint and were completely mesmerized by the stunning pink Salt Lake! π The city actually gets its name from the nearby Great Salt Lake β the largest saltwater lake in North America. π From November to May, when water levels are higher, the lake transforms into a breathtaking "Mirror of the Sky" β reflecting the sky like a natural mirror! β¨ So, why is the lake pink? Itβs all thanks to a special type of salt-loving algae called Dunaliella salina. Under certain conditions, these tiny organisms produce beta-carotene β the same pigment that makes carrots orange β which turns the water this dreamy shade of pink! π§π¬ #PinkLake #GreatSaltLake #SaltLakeCity #Utah #NaturalWonders #SkyMirror
