The interesting part with this place would be, the beautiful pool colors may range between dark aqua, emerald, and also shades of turquoise depending on how clear the sky is on that day. Do not go too early like in the afternoon because you will definitely get sunburn as there are no big trees on the hills. Pack some water and also snacks for the trip because it is going to be a long walk but please do not litter. Also, put on some shoes but not your favorite one because the rocks will leave some stains on the sole.
