         <description><![CDATA[<div>Known as "the river of five colors", it is considered by many travelers as the most beautiful in the world. It is located in the municipality of Caño Cristales, department of Meta.<br><br>Its name is due to the fact that, because its waters are like fine crystals, they show the aquatic plants that grow there. These are the ones that give it its characteristic colors (yellow, green, black and blue).<br><br>This river is not mighty or wide, that is why it is called a "pipe." It extends for almost 100 kilometers and is born in the southern plateau of the Serranía de La Macarena.</div>]]></description>

This part of Norway, with its countless islands, deep fjords and rugged mountains, is one of the best and most beautiful places to admire the Northern Lights.<br><br></div><div>In Northern Norway you can admire magical lights throughout the polar night period. On clear days, the beautiful colors of the sunset can be seen in the south, while the sky in the north is deep blue. Towards the so-called blue hour, just before dusk, landscapes turn bright blue. Northern Lights have very diverse shapes, structures, and colors that also change rapidly over time.</div>]]></description>
