This river in Portugal is a fantastic example of how our beautiful world is full of surprises. We're talking about the Odeleite Dam, which has the shape of a beautiful 'dragon' when viewed from above. Because of its dark blue colour, the river is also known as the 'Blue Dragon River.' The dam, which was built on the Odeleite River in Castro Marim municipality in the Algarve, is truly stunning. There is little information available regarding the history of this magnificent river. Photographer Steve Richards recorded the river on his camera while flying over the dam, which was extremely sinuous and deep blue in colour. He published the photo on social media, and it quickly went viral.
The river's shape resembles that of a Chinese dragon. Long and winding blue dragon. A dragon is considered totally sacred in Chinese mythology. In Chinese culture, it is a significant emblem of power and strength. Since the photo went viral, the river has drawn international interest in recent years, particularly from Chinese tourists.
