斯科加瀑布，冰岛

今天照片里的是冰岛的斯科加瀑布，它是冰岛最大的瀑布之一，有82英尺宽，垂直落差约200英尺。游客经常能在这里看到彩虹，甚至是双彩虹。传说，第一个踏足冰岛的维京人曾把一个宝箱藏在了斯科加瀑布后面，这又为这个瀑布增添了一丝神秘色彩。

这个瀑布在很多热门影视作品中都出现过，比如《雷神：黑暗世界》《慷慨的心》《权力的游戏》等等。瀑布附近还有一个斯科加博物馆，可以让人们了解冰岛的文化遗产。

Skógafoss waterfall, Iceland

Behold Skógafoss, one of Iceland’s largest waterfalls. This powerful cascade measures 82 feet across and drops 200 feet over what were once the sea cliffs of the country’s southern coast. The coastline receded seaward, but the cliffs remained, leaving behind this natural wonder, powered by water from two glaciers. Skógafoss, which translates as 'forest waterfall,' is frequently graced with single or double rainbows, formed by the refraction of sunlight through the mist. Legend has it that a treasure chest is hidden behind Skógafoss, left there by a Viking settler named Prasi Porolfsson.

The waterfall has appeared on the big screen, in 'Thor: The Dark World' and the Bollywood movie 'Dilwale,' as well as on TV in the final season of 'Game of Thrones.' The Skógar Museum, which offers insights into Iceland's cultural heritage, sits near the waterfall in Skógar village.
