冬日里的壮丽美景 Magnificent scenery in winter

中国黄山

立冬是中国二十四节气中的第十九个节气。这也是冬天的开始。在南方，初冬时节一般都不是很冷。随着时间的推移，冬至后冷空气频繁南下，气温逐渐下降。入冬后，北方大部分地区将出现雨雪降温天气。华北部分地区此时常下初雪。

今天给大家带来的是冬天的黄山。雪后的黄山银装素裹，美丽极了。游客可以欣赏到“玉宇琼塔”、“水晶宫”等美景，这是其他季节难以想象的。此外，黄山的温泉也非常有名，游客可以在这里享受温暖的温泉浴，在寒冷的冬天放松身心。

HuangShan, China

The Beginning of Winter is the 19th of the 24 solar terms in China. It is also the beginning of winter. In the south, it is generally not very cold in early winter. As time goes by, cold air frequently moves southward after the winter solstice, and the temperature gradually drops. After the beginning of winter, most areas in the north will experience rain, snow, and cooling weather. The first snow often falls in some parts of North China at this time.

Today we show you Huangshan Mountain in winter. After the snow, Huangshan Mountain is covered in silver and is so beautiful. Visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery such as "Yuyu Qiong Tower" and "Crystal Palace", which are unimaginable in other seasons. In addition, Huangshan Mountain is also very famous for its hot springs, where tourists can enjoy warm hot spring baths and relax in the cold winter.

照亮你忧郁的心 Shine a light into your blues

佩霍湖，百内国家公园，智利南部

蓝绿色的湖面上倒映着蔚蓝的天空，周围是嶙峋的山峰和郁郁葱葱的森林，这就是佩霍湖。这个冰川湖坐落在智利南部的百内国家公园内，是大自然的杰作。佩霍湖周围那高耸入云的百内犄角山（因形状酷似牛角而得名）和百内山丘也是一道特别的风景线。佩霍湖的湖水呈现出独特的绿松石蓝，是因为水中悬浮着被称为冰川粉或岩粉的细小岩石颗粒和矿物质。据说“Paine”（百内）一词源于特维尔切语，意为“蓝色”。1978年，百内国家公园被联合国教科文组织认定为生物圈保护区，其面积达700平方英里。徒步、划船、观星……公园里有许多精彩的游玩项目，带上你的冒险精神，向南出发，来一段“告别忧郁”之旅吧！

Lake Pehoé, Torres del Paine National Park, Chile

Turquoise waters surrounded by jagged peaks and lush forests—that's Lake Pehoé for you. Nestled in Torres del Paine National Park, Chile, this glacial lake reflects the towering peaks of the Cuernos del Paine, pictured here bathed in the sun's rays. The lake gets its color from finely ground rock particles and minerals, known as glacial flour, suspended in the water. The word 'paine,' pronounced pie-neh, in the park’s name is believed to have its roots in a Tehuelche word meaning 'blue' while 'torres' means towers. The park is named after three striking granite peaks that reach up to 8,200 feet above sea level but boasts many other spectacular mountains. At 700 square miles, Torres del Paine is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve with a huge amount to offer visitors, from hiking and kayaking to stargazing. So, pack your sense of adventure and head south to beat the blues.

消失的回声 Echoes of extinction

彩绘山，俄勒冈州

为了庆祝国际化石日，今天我们一起来了解一下位于俄勒冈州的约翰迪化石床国家纪念地中那迷人的彩绘山。一层层色彩鲜艳又富含粘土的土壤构成了彩绘山迷人的景观。此外，这些山丘还记录了该区域数百年以来的气候和生态系统的变化。在这里，游客们可以自由地参观博物馆内陈列着的动植物化石。在纪念地的克拉诺单元，人们可以一窥负鼠化石、岳齿兽化石、剑齿虎化石和海龟化石的风采，而这些遗迹也在提醒着人们，我们的星球曾活力无限、生机勃勃。

National Fossil Day

For National Fossil Day, we're looking at the mesmerizing Painted Hills, found in the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument in Oregon. Those stripes of red, tan, orange, and black were formed over tens of millions of years, the different layers in the claystone hills reflecting changes in the climate over that period. The monument itself is divided into three units, Painted Hills, Clarno, and Sheep Rock. In the latter, you'll find the Thomas Condon Visitor Center with a paleontology lab and a museum displaying hundreds of fossils. In the fossil beds, the remains of more than 100 species of mammals have been found, including saber-toothed tigers, turtles, and opossums, as well as many fossilized plant species. While the landscape might sometimes look otherworldly, it offers us a peek into Earth's dynamic and fascinating history.

高高的落基山脉 Rocky Mountain high

索普里斯山，科罗拉多州

巍峨的索普里斯山矗立在科罗拉多州落基山脉中部的一支名为埃尔克的山脉上。它位于卡本代尔镇附近，拥有两个显眼的山峰，即东索普里斯山和西索普里斯山。很多人误以为索普里斯山是一座火山，但实际上，该山体内部的岩浆并没有喷发出来，而是在约10,000英尺的地下深处结晶后形成了一个巨大的被岩石覆盖的穹顶。除了自然魅力之外，索普里斯山还是多个土著民族的圣地，比如历史上曾在该地区居住过的犹他人部落就是其中之一。因此，索普里斯山一直是落基山脉的标志性景点，吸引了众多游客和探险者前来参观。

Mount Sopris, Colorado

The rising sun hits the twin peaks of Mount Sopris in this autumnal scene, in Colorado's Elk Mountains, in the Rockies. Known as East Sopris and West Sopris, the two summits are both 12,965 feet in elevation, towering over the town of Carbondale, in the Roaring Fork Valley. It's a common misconception that Mount Sopris was a volcano but, although magma built up beneath its surface, it never erupted. Instead, it crystallized about 10,000 feet beneath the Earth's surface, creating a massive rock-covered dome. Erosion by rain, melting snow and glacial ice then shaped it into this twin-peaked giant over tens of millions of years.

Mount Sopris was a hallowed site for Indigenous peoples, including the Ute tribes who have historically inhabited the region. The Roaring Fork and Crystal Valleys served as seasonal dwellings and hunting territories for the Parianuche and Yampa bands of the Ute people. The mountain continues to be a beloved emblem of the Colorado Rocky Mountains, drawing in visitors and adventurers alike.

美国登山日

今天是美国登山日。为了攀登高峰和征服困难地形，登山者们需要专业的训练和丰富的经验，登山途中更是一段艰辛的旅程。但是，登上山顶俯瞰山下风景的那一刻，所有的艰辛都是值得的。今天图片中展示的是北美最高峰德纳里山，海拔超2万英尺，位于阿拉斯加的德纳里国家公园和保护区。“德纳里”一词源于阿萨巴斯卡语，是“至高者”的意思。

National Mountain Climbing Day

Today is National Mountain Climbing Day, dedicated to celebrating the sport while highlighting its many risks and rewards. In a bid to scale the tallest peaks and conquer difficult terrain around the world, mountain climbers embark on physically strenuous journeys that demand exceptional training and experience. But the panoramic views and sense of achievement after reaching the summit makes the effort worthwhile. Our image today is that of Denali, North America's highest peak at 20,310 feet, in south-central Alaska. The name 'Denali' means 'the high one' in the native Athabascan language. Four climbers, Walter Harper, Harry Karstens, Robert Tatum, and Hudson Stuck, were the first to set foot on the top of the mountain in 1913.

这些蔚为壮观的山峰在何处？ Where are these spectacular peaks?

三峰山，意大利

这三座位于意大利多洛米蒂山脉的山峰被称为三峰山。这片群山是阿尔卑斯山最著名的景点之一，世界各地的游客都来这里徒步旅行。你可以从各个角度欣赏壮丽的山峰，到了夏天，你还能看到漫山的野花。如果你想在月光下徒步或露营，一定要提前计划，为5小时的行程准备充足的水和零食。2009年，三峰山和整个多洛米蒂山脉一起被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产。

The Tre Cime di Lavaredo, Italy

This trio of peaks, known as the Tre Cime di Lavaredo, is located in the Sexten Dolomites of South Tyrol, Italy. The mountain group is one of the best-known in the Dolomites and tourists visit from all over the world to hike its trails. You'll enjoy a breathtaking view of the peaks from all angles and in the summer, you'll see a beautiful array of wildflowers. Make sure to plan ahead if you want to hike or camp under the moonlit sky and bring plenty of water and snacks. These peaks are part of the Dolomites World Heritage Site, which was designated in 2009.

It's Mountain Day in Japan

It makes a mountain of sense for Japan to celebrate Mountain Day, which occurs each August 11. Created in 2014, it's one of Japan's newest holidays. Nearly three quarters of the country is made up of mountains, thanks to its location on the Pacific Ring of Fire volcanic zone. Japan's four major islands—Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, and Shikoku—all have ranges running through them.

The 9,065-foot Mt. Tsubakuro, which we feature in our home page image today, is a popular hiking destination, with well-maintained trails, rest areas, and lodges. Beautiful scenery abounds here on the island of Honshu, less than three hours' driving distance from Tokyo.

According to the legislation that established Mountain Day, the observance was launched to provide 'opportunities to get familiar with mountains and appreciate blessings from mountains.' One of those is snow-capped Mount Fuji, Japan's tallest mountain (12,389 feet) and one of the most pictured peaks in the world. Japan's rugged terrain is a boon for its tourist industry, providing opportunities for skiing, climbing, and resorts featuring the country's many hot springs.

今天是日本的山地日

对于日本来说，庆祝每年8月11日的“山岳日”意义重大。该节日创建于2014年，是日本最新的节日之一。该国近四分之三的地区由山脉组成，这要归功于它位于太平洋火环火山区。日本的四个主要岛屿本州岛、北海道岛、九州岛和四国岛都有山脉穿过。

我们今天在主页上展示的9065英尺的Tsubakuro山是一个受欢迎的徒步旅行目的地，有维护良好的小径、休息区和小屋。离东京不到三小时车程的本州岛上有很多美丽的风景。

根据设立“山岳日”的立法，发起这项活动是为了“有机会熟悉山岳，欣赏山岳的祝福”其中一座是被白雪覆盖的富士山，日本最高的山峰（12389英尺），也是世界上照片最多的山峰之一。日本崎岖的地形对其旅游业是一个福音，为滑雪、登山和以该国众多温泉为特色的度假胜地提供了机会。

Halo around the sun

What do you call a rainbow formed by ice? An icebow, of course. Others call the phenomenon a halo, and we'll admit it does have a mystical aura. It happens in locales where the bitter cold persists despite the shining sun, like here in the Ore Mountains of Germany. When the conditions are just right, tiny ice crystals in the air will refract light into a colorful halo around the bright sun. It's a perfect complement to the snow angels you're yearning to make in this pristine blanket of white.

太阳周围的光晕

冰形成的彩虹叫什么？当然是冰山。其他人称这种现象为光环，我们承认它确实有神秘的光环。这种情况发生在尽管阳光灿烂，但严寒依然持续的地方，比如德国的俄勒冈州。当条件合适时，空气中的微小冰晶会在明亮的太阳周围折射出五颜六色的光晕。这是一个完美的补充雪天使，你渴望在这个原始的白色毯子。
