People are born to love beauty. Natural scenery can give people visually beautiful enjoyment, make people feel physically and mentally happy, and help people adjust their emotions and relieve stress.
On the other hand, appreciating the natural scenery of various places can also broaden people's horizons, discover the beauty of nature, and make life more positive and optimistic. Here are some of the most beautiful natural landscapes in the world.
1. Marble Caves, Chile
The Marble Caves are located in the Patagonian mountains, next to General Carrera Lake. Under the scouring of the lake for thousands of years, many stone pillars with different postures were formed in the cave.
Some of the walls are light gray, others share the same blue as the lake. When rowing in the cave, people can see many swirl-like lines on the stone wall, sometimes encounter the refraction of sunlight, and see the sparkling light floating on the stone surface.
2. El Yunque National Forest, USA
El Yunque National Forest is located in the northeast of Puerto Rico, covering an area of about 113 square kilometers. It is the only tropical rainforest managed by the US National Forest Service.
Plenty of rainfall, waterfalls, and rivers make it an ideal home for many flora and fauna. The forest breeds many endemic species, such as the critically endangered Puerto Rican parrot.
People can wander on the trails of the forest and feel the vitality here.
3. Argentina/Brazil Iguazu Falls
Iguazu Falls, the widest waterfall in the world, divides the river into Upper Iguazu and Lower Iguazu. Brazil and Argentina have created national parks on either side of the falls, offering many viewing points.
On the Brazilian side, people can take a plane to overlook the waterfall; while the Argentinian rainforest ecological train will take tourists to the entrance of the trail for people to explore in depth.
4. Lake Matheson, New Zealand
The best time to watch Lake Matheson is on a calm and clear morning when the wind has not disturbed the water and the clouds have not gathered on the peaks, the reflections of Mount Cook and Mount Tasman will be reflected on the dark brown lake.
The sight is often featured on chocolate boxes, calendars, and keepsakes, offering a glimpse of its beauty to those who cannot experience it for themselves.
5. Phang Nga Bay, Thailand
If you like "007: The Man with the Golden Gun", then you will definitely remember one of its filming locations - Phang Nga Bay. This famous bay with an area of 400 square kilometers has emerald waters that are unforgettable.
Local guides will paddle canoes and lead tourists into huge caves full of stalagmites and stalactites; they will also take people deep into characteristic villages to experience the life of local people.
6. Grand Canyon, USA
Located in the northwestern part of Arizona, the Grand Canyon was formed by the erosion of the Colorado River over millions of years. The canyon is dominated by red brick color, jagged and steep.
The total length of the canyon is about 446 kilometers, and the average depth is 1200 meters. From the bottom of the valley to the top, the rocks of each geological period have clear layers, and different colors and contain representative biological fossils. Therefore, in addition to the stunning scenery, the scientific significance of the canyon is also prominent.
