Colorado's Rainbow Falls AKA Graffiti Falls
If you ask a local of Colorado Springs or Manitou Springs about Rainbow Falls, there's a good chance that they'll mention it by its nickname, Graffiti Falls. That's because the area is totally filled with colorful graffiti.
While driving up to Rainbow Falls, you'll follow a road consisting of red dirt, much like Garden of the Gods. The closer you get, the more small waterfalls you'll begin to see.
However, you'll also begin to see more and more graffiti.
You'll know you've arrived at Rainbow Falls when you see a giant bridge filled with spray paint. The surrounding rocks also have graffiti all over them, as does pretty much every area surrounding the natural waterfall.
