Have you ever dreamed of travelling all the way over the
rainbow? Well, it’s easier than you think. All you need to do is to
book a plane ticket to Rainbow Mountain in Peru(秘鲁). The
South American country is home to wonderful natural sights, and the most famous one is Rainbow Mountain. Millions of tourists come for it every year.
Rainbow Mountain is a beautiful natural wonder. It lies in the Andes in Cusco(库斯科的安第斯山脉). As its name suggests, the mountain has different colours.

But why is it in yellow, green, red and purple? The reason is the ice that covered the area hundreds of years ago. When it started to melt(融化), the water mixed with the minerals(矿物质) in the ground and turned the earth into many colours.
Try to climb the mountain during drier months when there is less rain or snow. Rain or snow makes the climbing more difficult and the colours will look less beautiful. The best time is from March to November, when there are blue skies and pleasant weather. And visit it in the morning or evening, either right after sunrise or right before sunset. Very sunny days may make it hard to take nice photos.

To get to Rainbow Mountain, you should first travel to Cusco—a province in the south of Peru. Then you can take a drive to Qesoyuno. From there you can start the journey on foot. It takes about a two-or three-hour walk to the top. This is really the best way, but the trip is very difficult. The mountain sits at a very high altitude(海拔) about 5,200 metres above sea level, so bring enough water and take your time.
