Pourquoi Cette Ville Ressemble à un Sachet de Skittles

Sympa

Burano, une île près de Venise, est célèbre pour ses maisons aux couleurs vives, que les habitants disent aider les pêcheurs à trouver leur chemin dans le brouillard. Les couleurs vives suivent également un système spécifique où les propriétaires doivent obtenir l'approbation du gouvernement pour leur teinte choisie. D'autres endroits colorés dans le monde incluent Chefchaouen au Maroc, connu sous le nom de "Ville Bleue" car ses bâtiments sont peints dans diverses nuances de bleu, et le village Arc-en-ciel à Taiwan, qu'un ancien soldat a transformé en une explosion de couleurs pour le sauver de la démolition. Il y a aussi La Boca à Buenos Aires, où les maisons colorées reflètent la culture du tango animée du quartier. Ces endroits ne sont pas juste agréables à regarder, ils sont remplis d'histoires fascinantes et de traditions uniques.

00:00Let's discover together some places straight out of another world.

00:05Welcome to the vibrant and colorful world of Burano, an Italian island.

00:10The first thing that will strike you is the audacious and captivating panorama formed by the rainbow of colorful houses that adorn the island.

00:19Today, Burano is mainly a tourist destination, where only a handful of locals still reside.

00:26The island is also known for its lace making, a traditional art that has lasted for centuries.

00:32Sure, you could come across some cheap counterfeits in souvenir shops,

00:36but the real lace pieces are made by hand by a few artisans of the city, among the most popular.

00:43But why did the inhabitants of Burano decide to paint their houses so vividly?

00:48Like an ad for the Skittles?

00:50The answer is in the history of the island.

00:53The first houses in Burano were made of wood and rosewood.

00:57It was only later, with the Romanization of the region, that the houses began to be built in brick.

01:04However, the colors only appeared with the birth of the lace industry, which brought renown and prosperity to the island.

01:12It was mainly inhabited by fishermen who suffered from frequent winter fogs.

01:17To solve this problem, they began to paint the facades of their houses with vivid colors

01:22in order to be able to find their way even in the thickest fog.

01:27Another theory suggests that the different colors were used to identify the different families of the island.

01:33Some also think that humidity and local women are at the origin of these multiple nuances,

01:38because they repainted the facades with a mixture of paint from various sources.

01:44Let's go to another island, to Japan this time.

01:47Where, surprise, it is the cats that reign as masters.

01:52Aoshima houses more than 200 felines, mainly tiger cats and brunettes, as well as tricolores.

01:58All ready to welcome you.

02:01You can walk on the island with them, sit down and relax while they have fun with the foxes.

02:06Or just enjoy the peaceful waters.

02:08The inhabitants feed the cats every day, so they have nothing but food.

02:13However, it is always nice to offer them food in a designated area,

02:18or to play with them to make them even happier.

02:22Aoshima has not always been known as the island of cats.

02:24In the past, it was a village of prosperous fishermen, where cats were used to hunt mice.

02:29With the decline of fishing, the human population has decreased,

02:33but the cats have remained and have prospered more beautifully.

02:36Some cat enthusiasts have discovered the island, and the rest belongs to history.

02:41Thanks to the Internet and mouth-to-mouth, Aoshima has become famous all over the world,

02:46and is now a favorite destination for cat lovers.

02:51Now, look at this incredible gulf on the Oregon coast near the Perpetual Cape.

02:57It is called the Tor well, and it seems straight out of a movie.

03:02It is also nicknamed the Pacific well, a rather funny name when you think about it.

03:07Basically, it is a hole in the rock that seems to suck up all the water from the surrounding ocean.

03:13Some scientists think it used to be a cave.

03:17It is an impressive spectacle, especially during high tides or storms,

03:21when the waves break out and crash into the gulf.

03:24Just be careful, because you do not want to be swept into the abyss.

03:30The next step is Pamukkale in Turkey.

03:33Literally, the cotton castle.

03:36This place houses the most beautiful white water basins in the world.

03:40Formed by thousands of years of water flow and deposits of carbonated minerals.

03:45Pamukkale is imbued with history and ancient legends.

03:49People have been coming here for centuries to enjoy the healing properties of thermal springs.

03:55The story of a young girl who would have turned into a dazzling beauty after being bathed

04:00is just one of the many legends surrounding this enchanting place.

04:05The mineral-rich waters flow slowly along the mountain,

04:09pouring their waterfalls on these mineral terraces down to the lower basins.

04:14The terraces are made of travertine, a sedimentary rock formed by the mineral water of hot springs.

04:21There are about 17 hot springs there,

04:25with temperatures ranging from 35°C to boiling point.

04:31The water flows 320 meters up to the top of the travertine terraces,

04:35depositing calcium carbonate on a section of about 60 to 70 meters long.

04:42When the water is oversaturated with calcium carbonate,

04:45it releases carbon dioxide and deposits calcium carbonate on the surface.

04:51It begins as a soft gel and ends up crystallizing into a travertine.

04:55Incredible, isn't it?

04:59In Burma, there is an unbelievable village in the jungle,

05:02littered with ruined temples and named Nyaung Ohak.

05:06Of course, this is not the easiest place to access, but I assure you that it is worth it.

05:12After a peaceful boat trip of about an hour, you will cross this charming village.

05:17The floating market is the ideal place to buy fresh fish and vegetables.

05:21And maybe even, you try the merchandise.

05:24Then, you will discover some modern and elegant temples, painted in brilliant white.

05:29Although impressive, the real magic only occurs when you see the ancient ruins,

05:35present for centuries.

05:38These structures have never been renovated.

05:40The complex details of each temple and the various Buddha statues

05:44work like a real time machine, taking you back to ancient times.

05:49The general atmosphere is so captivating

05:51that it will leave a lasting impression on anyone who has the chance to go there.

05:57Have you heard of the Rainbow River in Colombia?

06:00Its name is evocative, this place is a psychedelic explosion of colors.

06:05The river, a real liquid rainbow, offers shades of red, yellow, purple and much more.

06:12Its colors change according to the light conditions, creating new surprises at every moment.

06:17The river bed is upholstered with specific plants, which are full of shades of red.

06:22And the waterfalls add to the breathtaking beauty of the landscape.

06:28Now, look at this place called the Danakil Depression.

06:34This geological formation results from the continental drift of three tectonic plates.

06:39What a rarity!

06:40No wonder it is one of the most unique environments on Earth.

06:44And it is located in Ethiopia.

06:47The Danakil Depression is known to be one of the warmest places on the planet,

06:52sheltering lakes of salt and lava, volcanoes and colorful acid springs.

06:57It's like a whole other world.

06:59You might wonder how this unusual place appeared, right?

07:03Well, when the African and Asian tectonic plates separated,

07:08they left behind them a huge hollow in the ground.

07:11It almost looks like the Earth has opened up and said,

07:14my faith, I feel creative today.

07:18In addition to its remarkable geology, Danakil is an attraction for scientists studying the origin of life.

07:24They discovered the remains of Lucy,

07:27one of our first human ancestors dating back 3.2 million years.

07:32In addition, the acid springs of the Dallol crater could house extremophile microbes,

07:38these organisms that thrive in harsh and high-temperature environments.

07:43Who knows what other mysteries this strange and wonderful place could reveal to us?

07:48Now, let's talk about this beach near Fort Bragg in California,

07:52known as Glass Beach.

07:55It's not that its sand is used to make glass,

07:58but in the past, it was a waste dumping site, made of glass in particular,

08:03which ended up being reduced to small pieces by the waves.

08:08It is forbidden to collect this glass as a treasure hunter,

08:12so resist the temptation if you visit this place.

08:16You have to leave it there so that others can appreciate it.

08:19The glass disappears slowly because it is eroded by the waves.

08:23And many tourists also collect it.

08:27There are actually three different sites where waste has been dumped to form this glass beach,

08:32but only one of them is adjacent to the State Park of McEacher.

08:38Do you have other original places in mind?

08:41Do not hesitate to share them in the comments below.
