彩虹之下的某个地方 Somewhere under the rainbow

维尔京群国家公园成立

1956年,商人兼自然保护主义者劳伦斯·洛克菲勒看到了加勒比海美属维尔京群岛之一圣约翰岛的美景,并意识到必须保护它。时间快进到今天,我们正在庆祝维尔京群岛国家公园成立68周年。这座公园占地约60%的岛屿和5,650英亩的水下土地,是一个活生生的保护范例,这还要归功于洛克菲勒向美国政府捐赠了5,000多英亩的土地。即使在2017年飓风“厄玛”和“玛丽亚”造成破坏之后,公园仍然强势回归,仅2018年就接待了超过10万名游客。公园里有800多种植物,如野生罗望子和世纪,140种鸟类,如绿颈鹑鸠和绿喉蜂鸟,以及大约50种珊瑚。在礁湾小径上,徒步旅行者可以看到古老的泰诺岩画和甘蔗种植园遗址,展示了该岛的殖民历史。从图中树干湾的水下浮潜小径到马霍湾满是海的水域,公园提供了各种各样的海洋冒险活动。

Virgin Islands National Park established

In 1956, businessman and conservationist Laurance Rockefeller saw the beauty of St. John, one of the US Virgin Islands in the Caribbean, and knew it had to be preserved. He donated more than 5,000 acres of land to the National Park Service, and today we're marking the 68th anniversary of Virgin Islands National Park. Covering about 60% of St. John and 5,650 acres of submerged lands, the park boasts stunning white-sand beaches, coral reefs, and historic sites.

On the Reef Bay Trail, hikers can see ancient Taino petroglyphs and old sugar plantation ruins, showcasing the island's colonial past. From an underwater snorkeling trail in Trunk Bay, pictured here, to Maho Bay's turtle-filled waters, the park offers a diverse array of marine adventures.

挖掘过去 Digging into the past

斯卡拉布雷

说起节日,考古可能不是人们首先想到的,但7月13日至28日举办的英国考古节将改变这一现状。自1990年创办以来,英国考古节已发展成一个为期两周的活动。从9月到7月的巧妙转变让考古迷们更容易探索夏季挖掘工作和各种文物奇迹。今年的主题是“考古与社区”,邀请英国各地的考古爱好者参加由遗产组织、地方协会和热心人士组织的一系列现场和虚拟活动。想象一下,站在苏格兰奥克尼群斯卡拉布雷古老石屋中(如图所示),这是5000多年前,新石器时代的定居者繁衍生息的地方。这座史前奇迹因1850年的一场暴风雨而暴露,因其惊人的保存能力而被誉为“苏格兰庞贝古城”,它比巨石阵甚至大金字塔还要古老。因此,拿起你的小铲子,准备深入挖掘传奇的历史故事吧。谁知道你会发现什么呢?

Skara Brae, Orkney, Scotland

Imagine standing amid Skara Brae's ancient stone houses on Scotland's Orkney archipelago, pictured here, where Neolithic settlers thrived over 5,000 years ago. Village life ended sometime around 2500 BCE and for centuries the homes were buried beneath sand and earth, until they were uncovered by a storm in 1850. This prehistoric marvel is sometimes dubbed the 'Scottish Pompeii' due to its astonishing preservation—older than Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids. It's part of the wider Heart of Neolithic Orkney UNESCO World Heritage Site, alongside other prehistoric survivors including the huge Ring of Brodgar stone circle. If digging up the past appeals, the Festival of British Archaeology is running July 13-28. So, grab your trowel and get ready to dig deep into the incredible, storied past. Who knows what you'll discover!

环太平洋国家公园保护区,不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华岛

在温哥华岛的西海岸,深绿色的温带雨林岩石海岸和沙滩交相辉映。让我们一起参观一下环太平洋国家公园保护区吧!该保护区占地511平方公里,于1970年被认定为国家公园。几个世纪以来,该地区的努查努阿特人一直在这片土地上生活。如今,努查努阿特人下属的15个部落中,有7个部落在公园内拥有至少22个小型保护区,有9个部落与公园接壤。保护区的另一个显著特征是沿海西部铁杉生物气候带。这片温带森林地带是黑熊、温哥华岛美洲狮和貂等多种动物的家园。

从今天的图片中可以看到,破碎群岛是由散落在巴克利上的一系列小岛和礁石组成的。历史爱好者可以探索沉之路,那是一条为遇难海员提供紧急救援的路线。在环太平洋国家公园保护区邂逅荒野,这里的探险经历将成为您珍贵的回忆。

Misool, Raja Ampat Islands, Indonesia

This pristine aquatic sanctuary so pristine that it feels like a secret whispered by the ocean itself. Misool is an island of almost 800 square miles within the Raja Ampat archipelago in Indonesia. The archipelago comprises four main islands, including Misool, Waigeo, Batanta, and Salawati. Here, the waves caress the powder-white sands, while a kaleidoscope of marine life swims beneath the surface. Raja Ampat is part of the Coral Triangle, a remote ocean wilderness that is home to hundreds of species of reef-building corals alongside marine turtles, sharks, whales, dugongs, dolphins, and thousands of species of reef fish. The archipelago is dotted with Marine Protected Areas, of which Misool is the largest, and includes nesting beaches for green and hawksbill turtles. Surrounded by a 'no-take zone' with fishing and hunting activities banned and a shark and manta ray sanctuary, Misool offers hope for the future of our oceans.

Folegandros Island, Cyclades, Greece

Welcome to Folegandros, one of the Greek Cyclades Islands in the Aegean Sea. This picturesque island has changed hands several times during its long history. It is thought it was once home to the Dorians, one of the four major ethnic groups of classical Greece, but it was also ruled for centuries by the Republic of Venice and later the Ottoman Empire. Greece reclaimed it in 1828.

Chora, the island's modern capital, can be seen on our homepage, perched on the edge of a 656-foot cliff with sweeping views of the ocean and surrounding islands. Built by the Venetians in 1212, the town is now a popular tourist destination, with its charming squares and traditional whitewashed churches.

赤血群岛的守护者

帕拉塔和桑吉奈尔群的热那亚之旅,阿雅克肖

闭上双眼,想象一下身处在科西嘉岛美丽的日落下,聆听海浪的声音......

帕拉塔塔建于1550-1551年,是一座历史悠久的防御塔。这座塔位于帕拉塔半岛,距离科西嘉岛的阿雅克肖约15公里。为了保护科西嘉海岸免受海盗的袭击,热那亚在科西嘉岛的海岸线上一共建造了90座这样的塔,它只是其中之一。

在帕拉塔塔,你可以饱览桑吉奈尔群岛的壮丽景色。坐落在阿雅克肖的吉奈尔群岛是由四个岩石小岛组成的,因其在日落时岩石呈现出血红色,它也被称为“赤血群岛”。为了褒奖当地为遗址保护和可持续管理做出的贡献,赤血群岛和帕拉塔角均被授予了“法国大景区”称号。
