旷野里的第一片雪花 First flakes in the wilderness

班夫国家公园，阿尔伯塔省，加拿大

今天的这张照片展示的是加拿大阿尔伯塔省的冬季仙境，对于那些寻求清新之美的游客来说，班夫国家公园是一个理想的去处。该公园建于1885年，在硫磺山附近的温泉被发现后，它成为了加拿大的第一个国家公园。随着时间的推移，班夫的边界不断扩大，它成为了加拿大落基山脉公园群世界自然遗产的一部分。这个国家公园占地超6600平方公里，在冬季会变成白雪皑皑的游乐场，吸引着游客们纷纷前来滑雪、穿着雪鞋在雪地徒步、玩冰壶、被动物拉着在冰面上滑行以及观赏野生动物。总之，这里为游客们提供了丰富的探索活动。尽管天气寒冷，但是公园里却生机勃勃！这里是各种野生动物的家园，包括麋鹿、灰熊、山羊和狼。扭叶松和恩氏云杉也在严酷的天气下顽强生长。为确保这种生态平衡可以维持下去，班夫国家公园的动植物群受到了人类的密切监测。

石狮海滩，奥林匹克国家公园，华盛顿州

奥林匹克国家公园始建于1938年，是一处未受污染的荒野胜地。该公园位于华盛顿州奥林匹克半岛，占地近1,440平方英里。从冰川覆盖的高山到温带雨林，这里的生态系统如迷宫般错综复杂，既是野生动物的家园，也是探险家和历史爱好者的度假胜地。公园内的石狮海滩宁静美丽，太平洋的浪花拍打着海蚀柱和沙岸，正如今天的图片所示。这个国家公园被认定为国际生物圈保护区，拥有600英里长的小径，徒步旅行者可以沿着海岸线徒步跋涉，在“拱门点”观赏海滩的海拱门。游客可以近距离观赏奥林匹斯山，这里有红胸䴓、冬鹪鹩和斑点猫头鹰等300多种鸟类。观赏完美景后，游客还可以在新月湖中畅游一番。阿拉瓦角以北的沿海荒野地区，包括那里的海滩，2000多年来一直是太平洋西北海岸马卡部落的家园，游客可以在附近的马卡保留地了解其文化。

Shi Shi Beach, Olympic National Park, Washington

Olympic National Park, established in 1938, offers an escape into unspoiled wilderness. It covers nearly 1,440 square miles on Washington's Olympic Peninsula. With a labyrinth of ecosystems that range from glacier-capped mountains to temperate rainforests, the park is a home for wildlife and an International Biosphere Reserve. Within it lies Shi Shi Beach, a serene stretch where the Pacific laps against sea stacks and sandy shores, as seen in today's image.

From here, you can follow one of the park's many trails and trek along the coast to see the beach's sea arch at Point of the Arches, an outcrop that has over 30 sea stacks, columns of rock rising from the beach. Within the park, visitors can get a closer look at Mount Olympus, spot over 300 bird species like red-breasted nuthatches, winter wrens, and spotted owls. They can also take a refreshing swim in Lake Crescent. The coastal wilderness area north of Cape Alava, including Shi Shi Beach, has been home to the Makah Tribe of the Pacific Northwest Coast for over 2,000 years. Visitors can gain an insight into their culture at the nearby Makah Reservation.

这里有“胡图”吗？

石林，日落点，布莱斯峡谷 国家公园，犹他州

让我们去石林旅行吧，犹他州的布莱斯峡谷国家公园就是我们的目的地。这座公园以摩门先驱埃比尼泽·布莱斯的名字命名，公园内有日落点，也就是今天图片中看到的石林。这些岩层是由霜冻风化和溪流侵蚀形成的，将石头塑造成超凡脱俗的地貌。日落点位于海拔8000至9000英尺的地方，可以一览红色、橙色和白色的石峰全景。其中最著名的是雷神之锤，这是一座石林，俯瞰着被称为“寂静之城”的公园的一部分。在日落点通往日出点的女王花园小径，你可以欣赏到更多美景和岩层，包括维多利亚女王石林。据居住在这一地区的派尤特土著居民所讲述的传说，石林是被狡猾的库伊特狐狸变成石头的罪人。无论你是徒步旅行者、摄影师还是普通游客，石林都在期待你的到来。

岩石保龄球 Rock 'n' bowl

保龄球海滩，加利福尼亚州

欢迎来到大自然的保龄球馆！位于加州门多西诺海岸的保龄球海滩以散布在海岸上的那些引人注目的岩石而命名。这些砂岩球（一种被称为结核的现象）是在数百万年的沉积过程中形成的，沉积层围绕着由矿物胶结物固定在一起的砂石核心堆积而成。侵蚀作用逐渐磨损了外层，露出我们今天看到的球形。这创造了一个只有在退潮时才会出现的迷人景象。这种砂岩球很罕见，人们对它们的来源有很多疯狂的猜测，有人认为它们是外星碎片，也有人怀疑它们是恐龙化石。然而，答案非常简单：这是大自然的力量在起作用。

Bowling Ball Beach in Mendocino County, California

Welcome to nature's bowling alley. Bowling Ball Beach on the Mendocino Coast in California is named after the striking rock formations strewn across the shore. These sandstone balls—a phenomenon known as concretions—formed over millions of years as sedimentary layers built up around a central core of sand and stone held together by mineral cements. Erosion gradually wore away the outer layers to expose the spherical shapes we see today. This created a fascinating spectacle that only appears at low tide. Concretions are rare, and there has been plenty of wild speculation about where they come from, with some believing them to be extraterrestrial debris while others wonder if they are dinosaur fossils. The answer, however, is quite simple: It is the forces of nature at play.

潮涨潮落，灯火通明 High tides and bright lights

南斯塔克灯塔，霍利希德，威尔士，英国

南斯塔克灯塔建在威尔士圣岛崎岖的悬崖上，俯瞰着爱尔兰海的深水区。自1809年建成以来，这座91英尺高的白塔一直为水手们指引方向；它为都柏林-霍利黑德-利物浦航线上的船只提供了安全通道。灯塔建成时，使用抹香鲸油点亮灯具；但多年来，灯塔的机械装置已升级为更先进的技术，如LED灯泡和菲涅尔透镜。灯塔于1984年实现自动化，其强大的光束照射范围可达28英里，至今仍是重要的导航设备。当夕阳西下，天空布满五彩斑斓的色彩时，南斯塔克灯塔在黄昏中的剪影令人叹为观止。游客们会勇敢地从陡峭的悬崖上爬下400级台阶，探索灯塔以及它的机房和展览区。

South Stack Lighthouse, Holy Island, Wales

Built on the rugged cliffs of Holy Island, Wales, the South Stack Lighthouse stands watch over the deep waters of the Irish Sea. The 91-foot-tall white tower has guided sailors since its completion in 1809; it provides safe passage for ships on the Dublin-Holyhead-Liverpool route. When it was built, sperm whale oil was used to light the lamps; however, over the years, the mechanism has been upgraded to more advanced technology like LED bulbs and Fresnel lenses. Automated in 1984, the lighthouse continues to serve as a vital navigational aid, with its powerful beam shining up to 28 miles. As the sun sets and the sky fills with colors, the silhouette of the South Stack Lighthouse in the dusk makes for a stunning sight. Visitors brave the 400-step descent down the steep cliff face to explore the lighthouse, including its engine room and exhibition area.

泰德国家公园，特内里费岛

雄伟的泰德峰海拔3718米，耸立在加那利群岛上。这座火山从海底隆起的高度达到了惊人的7500米，因此它既是西班牙最高的山峰，也是世界上海拔第三高的火山。

这个多姿多彩的地方曾是多部著名电影的拍摄地，包括《速度与激情》（2001年）、《第一滴血5：最后的血》（2018年）和《诸神之战》（2010年）。泰德国家公园占地189.90平方公里，已被联合国教科文组织认定为世界遗产。这里还拥有丰富的动植物资源。因此，如果您计划游览这个神奇的地方，请务必穿上合适的鞋袜，备好美味的小吃，尽情享受这段旅程。

This diverse location has served as the backdrop for several notable film productions, including "The Fast and The Furious" (2001), "Rambo V: Last Blood" (2018), and "Clash of the Titans" (2010). Teide National Park covers an area of 189.90 square kilometers and has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is also home to a rich biodiversity of native flora and fauna.

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.

城市网格传递了这一天象 The city grid delivers this celestial phenomenon

Chicagohenge

During the fall and spring equinox, the celestial phenomenon known as Chicagohenge occurs when the sun rises or sets directly between the buildings lining Chicago's west- and east-facing streets. The city's almost perfectly aligned grid is responsible for the event.

During the equinox, the northern and southern hemispheres receive an equal amount of sunlight, and the sun rises and sets directly to the east and west. As it happens, Chicago's grid is aligned with the cardinal directions on a compass, a handy fact to know anytime you're walking in the city.

It might be easy to lose touch with the natural cycles of the planet when you live in a concrete jungle, but at least twice a year, Chicagohenge reminds city dwellers exactly where this third rock from the sun is spinning.

芝加哥城

在秋分和春分期间，当太阳在芝加哥西面和东面街道两旁的建筑之间直接升起或落下时，就会出现被称为芝加哥柱的天象。这座城市几乎完全对齐的网格是这次活动的主因。

在春分期间，南北半球接收等量的阳光，太阳从东到西直接升起和落下。碰巧的是，芝加哥的网格与指南针上的基本方向对齐，这是一个方便的事实，你在城市中行走的任何时候都可以知道。

当你生活在混凝土丛林中时，可能很容易与地球的自然循环失去联系，但芝加哥恒河每年至少两次提醒城市居民，太阳的第三块岩石正在旋转的确切位置。
