科莱圣卢恰小镇，多洛米蒂山，意大利

这个位于多洛米蒂山山坡上的小村庄风景如画，如果你把它误认为电影中的场景也不足为怪。科莱圣卢恰是一个意大利小镇，有着约400名居民。尽管科莱圣卢恰位于意大利北部，但这个小镇的风格更偏向奥地利。小镇距离奥地利边境的蒂罗尔州只有几步之遥。和它的奥地利邻居一样，科莱圣卢恰以壮美的山峰和滑雪场而闻名。相较于晴朗的威尼斯，科莱圣卢恰的气候更接近寒冷的因斯布鲁克，尽管威尼斯距离小镇南边仅60英里。

Colle Santa Lucia, Dolomites, Italy

This tiny hamlet on the slopes of the Dolomite Mountains is so picturesque, we'd understand if you mistook it for a movie set. But Colle Santa Lucia is a real village in Italy with about 400 residents. Despite its location in Italy's northern reaches, the village is more culturally Austrian than Italian, and is only a stone's throw from the Austrian border state of Tyrol. And like its Austrian neighbors, Colle Santa Lucia is known for its peaks and ski resorts. It has more in common with wintry Innsbruck than sunny Venice, which is less than 100 miles away to the south.

当冰块变成了艺术 When ice imitates art

佩普斯湖

佩普斯湖是欧洲第五大湖泊，形成于数亿年前的古生代。这里的沙丘非常有名，当各方面条件恰好时，这些沙丘会在风吹时“唱歌”。在冬天，结冰的湖面上可能形成照片中的堆积冰。这些堆积冰是由浮冰受到缓慢不均匀的挤压而形成的。

Lake Peipus, Estonia

Lake Peipus, the fifth-largest lake in Europe, dates back hundreds of millions of years to the Paleozoic Era and is known for its sand dunes, which can 'sing' when the wind blows just right. In the winter the frozen lake surface may feature ice hummocks, as seen in this image. The hummocks are caused by slow, uneven pressure in the ice pack.

Winter in the Wild West

When considering the dramatically eroded canyons of southwestern Utah, snow may not be the first thing that comes to mind. But far-flung Bryce Canyon National Park gets plenty of the white stuff, owing to its elevation of 8,000-plus feet at the massive amphitheater's rim. The cold not only provides scenic snowy views and great cross-country skiing, it's responsible for the striking red-rock pinnacles—known as hoodoos—that make the park so unique.

High above sea level, winter in Bryce Canyon often sees daily shifts between freezing and above-freezing temperatures. Despite its name, Bryce Canyon isn't a true canyon, but is instead a collection of natural amphitheaters. The park's hoodoos formed as water seeped into massive stone plateaus, then froze and expanded to break away chunks of rock. Repeated day after day for eons, this process has left slim sections of sediment standing throughout Bryce Canyon—now the largest concentration of hoodoos in the world.

狂野西部的冬天

在说到犹他州西南部峡谷为什么受侵蚀严重时，降雪可能并不是第一个被想到的原因。但是遥远的布莱斯峡谷国家公园（Bryce Canyon National Park）由于在大型圆形剧场的边缘海拔超过8,000英尺而获得了很多白色的东西。寒冷不仅带来优美的雪景和越野滑雪，而且还造成了令人惊叹的红岩峰（称为石林），使公园如此独特。

布莱斯峡谷的冬天海拔很高，每天都会出现冰点和冰点以上温度的变化。尽管它的名字包含峡谷，但布莱斯峡谷不是一个真正的峡谷，而是一个自然露天剧场的集合。公园的石林随着水渗入巨大的石制高原而形成，然后冻结并扩大以分裂成块的岩石。这一过程日复一日地重复了亿万年，留下了遍布布莱斯峡谷的薄薄的沉积物，现在布莱斯峡谷是世界上最大的石林聚集地。

Stunning in winter

Kinkakuji, also known as the Golden Pavilion, is one of the most famous sights in Kyoto. The golden temple that is actually made of gold, has been a popular attraction for many. During the winter, the white color of the snow contrasts beautifully with the color of the temple creating a breathtaking sight.

冬天惊艳

金阁寺，也被称为金阁，是京都最著名的景点之一。实际上由黄金制成的金殿，已成为许多人的热门景点。在冬季，雪的白色与寺庙的颜色形成了鲜明的对比，营造出令人叹为观止的景象。
