Recently, singer Le Quyen and her son had the opportunity to explore the tourist destination of Seven Magic Mountains, often called the "7 Colored Stone Park" in the Nevada desert, Las Vegas suburbs, USA.
Le Quyen visited this place on a beautiful sunny day. The female singer felt overwhelmed by the vast space and colorful stone pillars, while her son said "more smoke than the summer sunshine". The singer and her children happily took photos at this interesting location.
Located about 16 km south of Las Vegas, the 7- colored Stone Park is one of the most unique and prominent outdoor art tourism destinations in Nevada, USA.
Created by Swiss contemporary artist Ugo Rondinone, this project not only attracts visitors with its impressive color beauty, but also has a profound meaning of the connection between people and nature.
The project consists of 7 stone pillars from 9 to 10 meters high, stacked from natural rocks, with a total of 33 limestone stones. Each rock weighs from 10 to 25 tons, fixed together firmly by a pillar.
The artist then painted the stone with fluorescent paint in bright colors such as pink, yellow, orange, green and blue. Amidst the wild, arid and monotonous desert landscape, these "magic mountains" appear as a magical, outstanding and vibrant work of art.
The project is located on an area of 1.2 hectares. This art project cost up to 3.5 million USD and took about 5 years to complete.
The project was inaugurated in 2016 and was initially expected to be on display for only 2 years. However, due to the popularity and large number of visitors, the exhibition time has been extended many times. To date, this is still one of the destinations not to be missed when coming to Las Vegas.
Artist Ugo Rondinone shared that the goal of the 7-color Stone Park is to create a strong contrast to the arid and somewhat monotonous desert environment. The stone pillars represent opponents, visual contrast, symbolizing vitality in a harsh environment.
With its unique scenery, this place is considered a paradise for those who love taking photos. Many people have come and shared on social networks photos taken at different times of the day.
The project is open for free, visitors are encouraged to come at dawn or sunset to get the most beautiful photos.
Because the location is in a desert area, visitors should prepare drinking water, hats, sunscreen and comfortable walking shoes when visiting.
This is also a private artwork protected by law. If visitors deliberately climb and destroy the rocky mountains, they will be fined.
