      Here you can see very clearly how the color is created from the fusion of two rivers!!!

        Los Teñideros is the name of the place where the Rio Celeste gets its turquoise blue color. It is the confluence of the crystal clear streams Rio Buena Vista and Quebrada Agrio. The chemical reaction of sulfur and calcium carbonate from the volcanic rock is responsible for this unique phenomenon that will leave you in awe.
