One of the most colorful spots in the California desert 🌈✨ Salvation Mountain is a true labor of love and a must-see if you’re exploring near the Salton Sea! It is a colorful, hand-built art installation and spiritual landmark located about 1.5 hours from Palm Springs. It was created by Leonard Knight (1931–2014), who began working on it in the 1980s. Knight’s vision was to spread a simple message: “God Is Love.” Using adobe clay, straw, and thousands of gallons of brightly colored, donated paint, he built and decorated the man-made mountain over several decades. Have you ever been or is it still on your bucket list? . . . #wendanvscalifornia #wendanvsworld #salvationmountain #travelreels #californiatravel #visitcalifornia
