Similar, but Plitvice Lakes are cool water. Little Havasu Canyon (notably Havasu Falls) also has cool/cold water travertine. The description of Plitvice says the carbonate builds up in plant root systems.

From the dusty shelves of highly obscure trivia: A bit upstream along the Little Colorado, the pools behind the travertine dams are the home of a poor wittle threatened, endangered minnow called the humpback chub.
