The Emerald River In Slovenia

in photography •  6 years ago 

Many years before the internet and in times when Slovenia was still a part of Yugoslavia we thought that this is the only river in the world with this kind of color.

Soča River

We were told soo in school. And many other odd truths.

We believed that.

We were proud and happy.

It's cold even in the summer.

30 km from the source the color turns green.

I didn't do much traveling myself but I saw a couple of similar rivers later on. Online you can find them even more.

We lived in the illusion.

But you must admit that this time they were right.

The Soča River is beautiful, indeed.

See you soon, my friends.

I know what you mean about odd truths. Sadly we had no other chance but to believe them at that time.
However, we cannot deny the beauty of the river and the surrounding area. It is so picturesque.
