Mysterious paradise... Exploring higher and higher in our favorite canyon, I discover incredibly beautiful pictures of the Turkish autumn. The combination of the golden colors of the leaves of the trees in the evening sunlight against the background of the harsh compositions of gray stones and breathtaking giant rocks... So, enjoy with me our extreme experience of swimming in a winter mountain river!
I once wrote to you about my unforgettable walk among the flowering cyclomens on the rocks. And so I came again and saw a miracle: snowdrops bloomed on the same rocks in December! Nature surprises us every time with its magical transformations. We live in a constant rush in our cities, in pursuit of earning money to survive... But every time we look for this magical paradise that nature gives us, so generously and freely giving us the pleasure of observing these magical changes of its beauty.
In my Ukraine, these flowers always bloomed only in March and it was the beginning of spring. I was born in March, and these flowers have always been a wonderful gift for my birthday.
After we fully enjoyed this miracle, We got into our car and drove higher into the mountains to explore an amazing place that We recently discovered during the walk of my Darinka in a pink dress. We saw beautiful pictures of rocks in combination with stones from above, but Darinka and I really wanted to go down to these charming turquoise small lakes that formed in the depths between the stones.
Pictures of nature were mesmerizing! Tall pines rose to the sky, and between the pines a river snake was visible, which found its way between the rocks and continued its eternal path, giving life to the trees that grew directly on the rocks.
We went down to the river and carefully made our way, jumping from stone to stone.
I stopped to enjoy these pictures that the water was creating as it flowed between the big stones, forming little waterfalls! And the crimson autumn leaves fell into the water, creating beautiful compositions.

We move up along the river, in search of the best lake for swimming. Stopping each time to take a photo of this breathtaking paradise!
Finally we found the best place in our opinion and @darine.darine was the first to try swimming in this beautiful cold water! You can see in the video what adrenaline she got ๐

So, for Darinka it was an extreme jump into icy water! She quickly dived and quickly jumped to the shore!
About me: I love swimming in cold water. I always dive headfirst and later I get a kick out of the increased blood circulation in my body. And of course, it is a special pleasure to be in the warm rays of the sun after swimming in icy mountain water :)
When the sun goes down behind the mountains - it is so interesting to catch in your photos the fascinating combination of the sun's rays and the beauty of the illuminated trees that look like they are on fire ๐ฅ

While the weather is still sunny and warm, we continue to explore new beautiful natural places around Kemer.
