卡拉卢纳海滩, 撒丁岛, 意大利 Crisp blues, sharp views

清爽的蓝调，清晰的视野

意大利撒丁岛以其崎岖的悬崖、隐秘的海滩以及层层叠叠的蓝色海水，堪称地中海的一颗明珠。全岛海岸线长度超过1100英里。尽管岛上自然河流稀少，其中提尔索河为最长河流，撒丁岛通过水利工程建设了54座人工湖与水坝。其中最重要的两座为奥莫代奥湖与科吉纳斯湖，分别为当地的重要水源及电力供应地。

今日图中所见的卡拉卢纳海滩，位于撒丁岛东海岸的奥罗塞伊湾，在伊卢内河入海口处，坐落于月亮峡谷尽头。这片金色沙滩被海拔950英尺以上的白色石灰岩悬崖所环绕，亦是理想的攀岩胜地。这里的海水近岸浅而清澈，逐渐加深，非常适合浮潜、潜水及垂钓等活动。在当地努奥罗方言中，“月亮”一词被称为“elune”，该名称恰如其分地传达了这一迷人海湾的精髓。更添神秘气息的是，该海滩呈新月形，与其名称相呼应。数百年来，来自包内村落的牧羊人需徒步八小时才能抵达这片隐秘之地，他们将这段旅程形容为“如同走到了月亮上”。

The beach at Cala Luna, Sardinia, Italy

The island of Sardinia in Italy, with its rugged cliffs, secret beaches, and endless shades of blue, is undeniably a Mediterranean treasure. On the island's eastern coast lies Cala Luna, featured here—a beach in the Gulf of Orosei. Rising at the mouth of Rio Illune, this beach is at the end of the Codula di Luna canyon. It is a haven of golden sand, surrounded by white cliffs that rise more than 950 feet into the sky—perfect for rock climbing.

Here, the waters are shallow at first, before deepening into clear depths ideal for snorkeling, diving, and fishing. In the local Nuoro dialect, the word for 'luna,' Italian for 'moon', is rendered as 'elune,' a name that perfectly captures the essence of the beach's crescent shape.

海底世界 Under the sea

世界珊瑚礁保护日

“海底的世界比陆地上的任何地方都要美好。” 迪士尼动画电影《小美人鱼》中，赛巴斯汀曾这样对爱丽儿说道。然而，我们是否真的为保护这一海底世界做得足够多？6月1日是世界珊瑚礁意识日，这是一个唤起人们关注珊瑚礁生态系统之美及其脆弱性的日子。一个壮丽的范例是新喀里多尼亚的大堡礁，它环绕着新喀里多尼亚最大的岛屿格兰德特尔岛。这条珊瑚礁长达930多英里，是世界上最长的连续堡礁之一。其广阔的9,300平方英里泻湖孕育着2300多种鱼类、濒危的儒艮、绿海龟以及迁徙的座头鲸。

然而，像这样的珊瑚礁正面临越来越多的威胁：污染、采矿废水、海洋温度上升，甚至包括部分防晒霜中的有害成分，不断增长的旅游业也对这些脆弱生态系统施加了额外压力。在这个世界珊瑚礁意识日，让我们承诺采取对珊瑚礁友好的行动：使用对珊瑚礁无害的防晒产品、减少塑料垃圾，并通过本地或线上平台支持珊瑚礁保护工作。

World Reef Awareness Day

'Life under the sea is better than anything they got up there,' Sebastian the crab once told Ariel. But are we doing enough to protect that underwater world? On June 1, we celebrate World Reef Awareness Day, a time to recognize the beauty—and fragility—of coral reef ecosystems. One magnificent example is the New Caledonian barrier reef, which wraps around Grande Terre, New Caledonia's largest island. At over 930 miles long, it's one of the longest continuous barrier reefs in the world. Its vast 9,300-square-mile lagoon is home to over 2,300 fish species, endangered dugongs, green sea turtles, and migrating humpback whales.

Reefs like this face growing threats—from pollution, mining runoff, rising ocean temperatures, and even harmful chemicals in some sunscreens. Increased tourism can also strain these fragile ecosystems. This World Reef Awareness Day, commit to reef-friendly choices: use reef-safe sunscreen, reduce plastic waste, and support conservation efforts in your community or online.

流经烟雾弥漫之地 Flowing through the Smokies

小鸽子河，大雾山国家公园，田纳西州

若不留神，便可能错过它，直到耳边传来潺潺水声、鳟鱼跃水的扑通声，或远处徒步者的欢笑声。这便是小鸽子河，蜿蜒穿越美国田纳西州的大烟山国家公园。在漂流活动与飞蝇钓兴起之前，这条河曾是当地原住民与早期定居者赖以生存的重要资源。切罗基族曾在此捕鱼，定居者沿河建起磨坊，盖特林堡、鸽子谷等城镇亦因河而兴。河名“小鸽子”源于曾栖息于此的旅鸽，尽管这一物种已于20世纪初灭绝，这一命名仍是对自然历史的纪念。

小鸽子河由西、中、东三支流汇聚而成，流经大烟山腹地，最终注入鸽子河沿河分布着诸多徒步路线，如盖特林堡步道，为游客提供平缓的路径、清澈的河景与舒适的树荫休憩点。部分路线，如拉姆齐瀑布小径，则沿河深入国家公园内部，并以壮丽瀑布作为终点。黑熊、蝾螈、翠鸟，甚至偶尔出现的水獭，都以小鸽子河为水源栖息地。下次造访大烟山国家公园时，不妨在仰望群山之余，也驻足低头欣赏脚下这条静静流淌、充满生命的河流。

Little Pigeon River, Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee

You'll hear it before you see it. The steady ripple, the splash of trout, the distant laughter of hikers. That's the Little Pigeon River, threading its way through Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee. Long before tourists tubed it and fly fishers angled in it, this river was how people stayed afloat. The Cherokee tribe fished in it. Settlers built grist mills along it. Towns like Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge grew up next to it. Even the river's name is a nod to the past—the passenger pigeon, once common in the area, vanished by the early 1900s.

The West, Middle, and East Prongs of the Little Pigeon come together to form a system that cuts through the Smokies and flows into the Pigeon River. Trails like the Gatlinburg Trail run alongside the river, offering flat paths with water views and shady rest spots. Some hikes, like the Ramsey Cascades trail, follow the river deeper into the park and reward you with impressive waterfalls. Black bears, salamanders, kingfishers, and the occasional river otter treat the Little Pigeon like their favorite watering hole. So, next time you're in the Smokies, don't just look up at the peaks, listen to the water below.

穿越数个世纪的流淌 Flowing through the centuries

米拉韦特，加泰罗尼亚，西班牙

在某些城镇中，现代化占据主导地位，而西班牙的米拉韦特村则似乎有意维持其历史原貌。这座位于加泰罗尼亚的村落依傍埃布罗河畔的悬崖而建，至今保留着鲜活的中世纪风貌。一座古堡仍俯瞰全境，陶艺匠人如同停留于14世纪，而当地的渡船至今仍未引入现代机动化技术。欢迎来到这座连河水都显得格外悠然的村庄。作为西班牙最长的河流，埃布罗河蜿蜒流淌，承载着伊比利亚人、罗马人、摩尔人与圣殿骑士的历史。历史上，当地居民依赖河水进行贸易、运输与防御。时至今日，游客仍可见皮划艇和渡船缓缓穿行其间，沿着曾为十字军战士所行的水道悠然漂流。

村落之上的米拉韦特城堡建于12世纪，最初由摩尔人修建，后经法国军事修会——圣殿骑士团加固扩建。该要塞历经风雨，依然屹立。厚重的城墙、具战略意义的塔楼及其俯瞰河流的地理位置，使城堡具备显著防御优势。米拉韦特现有居民不足700人，村庄由石砌房屋与狭窄巷道构成，形成一片安静的“迷宫”式聚落。其最初的规划用于防御入侵者，而今却也令不少游客在其中迷失方向。村内仍可见犹太人聚居区遗址，现为一处视野开阔的观景点。整体氛围静谧，仅偶尔被鸟鸣、钟声，或陶罐轻轻碰撞所打破。

Miravet, Catalonia, Spain

Some towns live in the present. Miravet in Spain politely declined. Clinging to a cliff above the River Ebro, this Catalan village offers a living glimpse into the Middle Ages. A castle keeps its perch, potters spin like it's the 1300s, and the local ferry still refuses to join the motor age. Welcome to the village where even the river seems too relaxed to rush. As Spain's longest river, the Ebro winds through tales of Iberians, Romans, Moors, and Knights Templar. Locals once relied on its waters for trade, transport, and even defense. Today, you'll spot kayakers, ferry boats, and visitors drifting through the same currents where Crusaders once crossed.

Perched above the village, the Miravet Castle dates to the 12th century. Built by the Moors and later fortified by the French military order Knights Templar, this fortress was made to last. Thick walls, strategic towers, and a commanding view of the river made sure of that. With a population of less than 700, the village is a quiet maze of stone houses and narrow lanes, built to confuse invaders and, coincidentally, modern tourists. There's a former Jewish quarter, viewpoints that deliver postcard-worthy angles, and plenty of silence—broken only by birds, bells, and the occasional clay jug clinking into place.

一处海滨奇观 A shore thing

梦娜威尔岩池，悉尼，澳大利亚

若你曾向往在海洋中畅游，却又不愿吞入口中的咸水，那么澳大利亚悉尼的梦娜威尔岩池无疑是一处理想选择。该泳池可谓水域中的一处悖论：池外波涛汹涌，而池内则水面平静、适宜游泳。岩池位于贝森海滩与梦娜威尔海滩之间，其形态更近似天然奇观而非典型人造泳池。这座泳池建于20世纪30年代的大萧条时期，作为失业救济工程的一部分，由工人于天然岩架上凿建而成。历经多次改建与升级，如今该泳池长度达30米，旁侧还设有一座较小的儿童泳池。二战期间，大批驻扎于附近的士兵也常前来此地游泳。泳池全年免费开放，定期由市政工作人员与潮汐共同清洁。因此，若你计划造访悉尼，不妨亲身体验这一海浪与池壁交汇之处，感受别具一格的海滨魅力。

Mona Vale Rockpool, Sydney, Australia

Ever wanted to swim in the ocean without accidentally drinking half of it? Enter Mona Vale Rockpool in Sydney, Australia—a watery paradox where the ocean is wild beyond the walls and well-behaved within its calm, contained edges. Perched in Sydney's Northern Beaches area—this rock pool feels more like a natural wonder than a human-made one. Built in the 1930s during the Depression, it was carved out of a natural rock shelf as part of an unemployment relief scheme. Upgraded over time, the pool is nearly 100 feet long and flanked by a smaller children's pool. The pools are free, open year-round, and cleaned regularly by both council crews and the ocean itself. So next time you are in Sydney, make a splash where the waves meet the wall. It's a shore thing.

绽放于你所在之地 Bloom where you're planted

布伦特伍德湾的布查特花园，不列颠哥伦比亚省，加拿大

一个多世纪前，这里还是一片荒废的采石场，如今每年春季则变成了色彩斑斓的花海。位于加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省布伦特伍德湾的布查特花园，展示了如何将缤纷花卉演绎为盛宴。春季时节，郁金香的香气弥漫小径，沿途色彩斑斓，每一个转角都有新花绽放。然而，这里并非一直如此美丽。20世纪初，罗伯特·皮姆·布查特曾在此经营石灰石采石场。1912年，他的妻子珍妮识别出废弃矿坑的潜力，开始在坑内种植花卉。如今，布查特花园占地55英亩，种植有900多种植物，每年春天近30万株球茎花卉竞相绽放。

在布查特花园，游客可以漫步于曾经是采石场的下沉花园，亦可探索由园艺设计师岸田伊三郎于1906年设计的日本庭园。此外，还可以参观玫瑰园，以及位于原布查特家族网球场旧址上的意大利花园。园区内还设有玫瑰旋转木马，其上装饰着30个手工雕刻的木质动物，并提供乘船游览花园区域的体验。花园内分布着安静的秋千和多座铜雕作品，如“三鲟喷泉”。游览结束后，可前往园区内的餐厅，享用时令美食或传统下午茶，为行程画上圆满的句点。

Butchart Gardens in Brentwood Bay, British Columbia, Canada

What was a depleted quarry over a century ago now transforms into a living color wheel each spring. Butchart Gardens in Brentwood Bay, British Columbia, knows how to put on a bloom show. In spring, roses scent the air, tulips line the paths, and something new blooms around every turn. But it didn't always look this way. In the early 1900s, Robert Pim Butchart operated a limestone quarry here. His wife, Jennie, saw potential in the depleted pit and began planting flowers in 1904. Now spread across 55 acres, the garden is home to more than 900 plant species—and each spring, almost 300,000 bulbs bloom.

While visiting the Butchart Gardens, take a stroll through the Sunken Garden, site of the former quarry, and explore the Japanese Garden, designed in 1906 by landscape architect Isaburo Kishida. If you stop by the Rose Garden, be sure to check out the Italian Garden—it replaced the family's tennis courts. There's more: ride the Rose Carousel, which comprises 30 hand-carved wooden animals. You'll also find quiet swings and bronze statues like the Three Sturgeons Fountain. Wrap it up with seasonal dishes or afternoon tea at the on-site dining room.

欧洲的野性之美 Europe's wild side

欧洲公园日

今天是“欧洲公园日”，旨在庆祝那些塑造各国自然特性的国家公园和保护区。该纪念日由欧洲公园联盟于1999年创立，以纪念1909年在瑞典建立的九座欧洲最早的国家公园。该节日旨在推动保护自然栖息地、野生动植物及文化遗产的行动，同时鼓励可持续旅游与户外活动。

挪威的尤通黑门山国家公园便是自然景观保护的典范之一。公园成立于1980年，面积超过400平方英里，拥有高山、冰川与深谷等多样的地貌特征。园内坐落着挪威最高的山峰群，包括北欧第一高峰加尔赫峰，海拔8100英尺。“尤通黑门山”意为“巨人的家园”，象征着其壮观的地貌及与北欧神话的深厚联系。公园内栖息着赤狐、北极狐、旅鼠和马鹿等动物，植物则包括多种能够适应极端环境的耐寒高山物种。著名的延德湖穿越园区，湖水因富含冰川沉积物而呈现醒目的绿色。该湖长约11英里，最宽处不足1英里，海拔约3280英尺。延德湖亦是著名的贝瑟根徒步路线的起点，这条路线每年吸引数千名游客，并因亨里克·易卜生的戏剧《培尔·金特》而闻名。

European Day of Parks

Today, European Day of Parks celebrates the national parks and conservation areas that shape a country's natural identity. Created by the EUROPARC Federation in 1999, this day commemorates the founding of Europe's first national parks—a set of nine parks established in Sweden in 1909. It promotes efforts to protect natural habitats, wildlife, and cultural heritage while encouraging sustainable tourism and outdoor activities.

Jotunheimen National Park in Norway is a prime example of protected natural landscapes. Established in 1980, it covers over 400 square miles of mountains, glaciers, and deep valleys. It is home to the country's highest peaks, including Galdhøpiggen, the highest in Northern Europe at 8,100 feet. The name 'Jotunheimen' translates to 'Home of the Giants,' a nod to its dramatic terrain and Norse mythology. The park shelters red foxes, Arctic foxes, lemmings, and red deer, while its flora includes hardy alpine species adapted to extreme conditions. The Gjende lake is famous for its striking green color, caused by glacial sediments. Stretching about 11 miles in length and less than a mile at its widest point, the lake sits at around 3,280 feet above sea level. It's the launch point for the famous Besseggen hike—which attracts thousands each year—made famous by Henrik Ibsen's play 'Peer Gynt.'

猴面包树大道 Baobab boulevard

猴面包树大道

从微小的细菌到高大的树木，地球上的生命彼此相互关联。国际生物多样性日旨在庆祝这一维系地球繁荣的生命之网。生物多样性与日常生活息息相关，涵盖可持续农业、清洁用水、气候行动以及灾害防范等诸多领域。生物多样性的减少会增加动物传染病传播的风险（包括动物传染给人类的疾病）。相反，保护生物多样性则有助于增强我们预防和应对大流行病等健康危机的能力。联合国深知生物多样性对当前和未来世代的重要意义，因此每年都设立这个纪念日，提高公众意识并推动保护行动。

今日图片展示的是马达加斯加的猴面包树大道。在马达加斯加西部梅纳贝地区，格兰迪迪埃猴面包树排列在未铺设的8号公路两侧，它们也被称为大猴面包树，是马达加斯加八种猴面包树中最大、最著名的品种。在当地，这些树木被称为“伦纳拉”或“伦尼亚拉”，意为“森林之母”。它们是这座岛国曾经茂密热带森林的遗迹，如今却因为广泛的森林砍伐而孤立地存活着。虽然该地区在2015年被宣布为自然保护区，但这些宏伟的树木依然面临着持续砍伐、稻田排水和季节性火灾等威胁。

International Day for Biological Diversity

Life on Earth, from tiny bacteria to towering trees, is interconnected. International Day for Biological Diversity is about celebrating this web of life that keeps our planet thriving. Biodiversity ties into everything, from sustainable farming and clean water to climate action and disaster preparedness. A decline in biodiversity can increase the spread of zoonotic diseases—those transmitted from animals to humans. In contrast, protecting biodiversity strengthens our ability to prevent and respond to health crises like pandemics. Recognizing its crucial role for current and future generations, the United Nations observes this day each year to raise awareness and foster action for conserving the planet's biological treasures.

Today's image features Madagascar's Avenue of the Baobabs. In the Menabe region of western Madagascar, Grandidier's baobabs line the unpaved Road No. 8. Also known as giant baobabs, they are the largest and most famous of Madagascar's baobab species. Locally known as renala or reniala (mother of the forest), these trees are remnants of the lush tropical forests that once covered this island country. Now, they stand alone as survivors of widespread deforestation. Though the area was declared a natural monument in 2015, these magnificent trees still face threats from further deforestation, rice field runoff, and seasonal fires.

茶歇时光 Teatime

国际茶日

传说中，茶的故事始于中国古代：一片树叶偶然落入沸水中，开启了这段芳香之旅。几个世纪之后，茶已成为全球消费量第二的饮品（仅次于水）。今天是国际茶日，这是由联合国设立的全球性节日，旨在肯定茶在消除贫困和促进可持续发展方面的重要作用，也向茶产业中的劳动者们致以敬意。

茶叶采摘是一项精细的手艺，扎根于传统技艺，同时受到地理环境的深刻影响。从今日图片中所示的浙江省烟雾缭绕的丘陵，到印度阿萨姆邦起伏的茶园，每个产区的采摘与制作方式各不相同。绿茶通常通过晒干或蒸汽处理来保留其鲜嫩风味；而乌龙茶与红茶则经过部分或完全氧化，发展出更加复杂而浓郁的香气与口感。茶的颜色、香气与滋味，因此呈现出令人着迷的多样性。全球茶叶生产的领先国家包括中国、印度、肯尼亚和斯里兰卡，每个国家都有其代表性的茶类风格：中国以普洱和绿茶闻名，印度盛产浓厚的红茶拼配，肯尼亚主产CTC红茶，斯里兰卡则以花香型锡兰茶广受欢迎。每一杯茶都蕴含着其产地的故事，由当地的土壤、海拔和气候共同塑造而成。

International Tea Day

Legend says that it began with a single leaf drifting into a pot of boiling water in ancient China. Centuries later, tea is the second-most consumed drink in the world (after water). Today is International Tea Day, a global nod to this timeless beverage, established by the United Nations to recognize tea's role in reducing poverty and supporting sustainable development. It's a day to honor both the drink and the people who are part of this industry.

Tea harvesting is a delicate craft, rooted in tradition and influenced by geography. From the misty hills of Zhejiang province in China, pictured here, to the rolling estates of Assam in India, the process differs. Green tea leaves are sun-dried or steamed to preserve their freshness, while oolong and black teas undergo oxidation to develop complex, bold flavors. The result is a rich spectrum of taste, color, and aroma. China, India, Kenya, and Sri Lanka lead global tea production. Each country offers its own signature style: China with pu-erh and green teas, India with robust black blends, Kenya with CTC teas, and Sri Lanka with floral Ceylon. In every cup, you can taste the story of its origin, shaped by the land's soil, altitude, and climate.
