Hawaii has been declared the main rainbow capital in the world

The rainbow is one of the most beautiful natural phenomena of nature. A new study “Secrets of the best rainbows on Earth” has declared Hawaii the rainbow capital of the world. There are many rainbows in Hawaii, and this is an island where you can see beautiful rainbows.

The rainbow is the result of the reflection, refraction and scattering of light in drops of water, and the location and climate of Hawaii make it an ideal place to explore the rainbow. The subtropical climate and weather conditions in Hawaii, which are dominated by trade winds, lead to frequent showers and clear skies between them. Another important factor in the occurrence of frequent rainbows is the mountains of Hawaii, which cause streams of trade winds to rise, forming clouds and producing rain. Without the mountains, Hawaii would be a desert with scanty 17-inch rainfall a year.

The Hawaiian Islands are located in a very remote place, and the air there is extremely clean and free of pollution, which contributes to the emergence of numerous bright rainbows with a full range of colors. To see a rainbow on a flat surface, the sun must be within 40 degrees of the horizon.

Rainbows play a vital role in Hawaiian culture and are often mentioned in their arts and language. There are various names used to describe Hawaiian rainbows, tied to the Earth rainbows (uakoko), standing rainbow shafts (kahili), barely visible rainbows (punakea) and lunar bows (aneunue kau po).

If you’ve ever been to Hawaii, chances are you’ll see one of the many types of rainbows here, so be prepared with your phone’s cameras.
