Silver streams, Natural waterfall in Bakhchysarai Raion, Russia.
The Silver Streams waterfall cascades down 5.5 meters over moss-covered limestone formations along the Sary-Uzen River in the Crimean Mountains.
The waterfall experienced a transformation in January 2016 when its ancient tufa cap, formed over 30,000 to 50,000 years, collapsed due to severe frost.
The water formation received its name from the thin streams flowing down the rock face, resembling silver strings of a musical instrument in sunlight.
Visitors can access the waterfall through a one-kilometer marked path from the Great Canyon tourist site, with entry fees required for admission.
The geological composition of the water contains specific minerals that contribute to tufa formation, requiring 10,000 years for natural reconstruction.
