宁静之地 A quiet place, indeed

普拉亚德尔锡伦西奥，西班牙

西班牙的阿斯图里亚斯地区以其自然美景、丰富的艺术遗产和美食而闻名。此外，该地区还有许多隐藏的“宝藏”，照片上的“寂静海滩”就是其中之一。寂静海滩是一个贝壳形状的小海湾，该地不仅环境清幽，还有一个天然的露天岩石剧场。海滩远离市区，没有商业气息和喧闹的人群。在这里，险峻的悬崖和金色的沙滩是散心冥想的理想之地，而附近的洞穴和水上活动则为渴望冒险的游客提供了刺激的体验。

海岸线上的地质奇观是由石英岩历经数百万年才形成的：当石英颗粒逐渐取代原始岩石并保持其纹理时，这一壮丽的景观也就随之出现了。这些岩石有着复杂的花纹和颜色，其中一些看起来就像古旧的木头。

Playa del Silencio, Spain

Spain's Asturias region, known for its greenery, artistic legacy, and excellent food, has many hidden gems. Our homepage image shows Playa del Silencio, or Beach of Silence, a shell-shaped cove with a natural rock amphitheater. Far away from urban areas and noisy crowds, the beach enjoys a sense of isolation and solitude. Rugged cliffs surround golden sands perfect for soaking up its peaceful vibes, while nearby caves and water activities provide exciting adventures for those who crave them.

The rocky shoreline seen here is made of quartzite, formed over millions of years. This spectacular display was created when quartz grains gradually replaced the original rock while maintaining its texture. With their intricate patterns and colors, some of these rocks resemble ancient wood.

西班牙骑士的“劲敌” A Spanish knight's greatest foes

卡斯蒂利亚-拉曼恰, 西班牙

在孔苏埃格拉小镇上，到处都流传着堂吉诃德的冒险故事，他是塞万提斯笔下的英雄，是西班牙史诗小说《堂吉诃德》的主人公。这个位于卡斯蒂利亚-拉曼恰的旅游胜地因一座名为卡尔德里科的小山丘而出名。这座山丘顶部有12座白色风车，或许正是这些风车激发了塞万提斯的灵感。在小说中，塞万提斯将它们描绘成一支巨人军队。风车由石墙和木制叶片构成，其中一些风车的历史可追溯到16世纪，它们曾是碾磨谷物的工具，如今成为见证历史的活化石。

卡斯蒂利亚-拉曼恰是西班牙第三大区，仅次于卡斯蒂利亚-莱昂和安达卢西亚，但与其面积相比，这里的人口相对较少。该地区的首府托莱多拥有重要的建筑和文化遗产，包括古城和托莱多大教堂，1986年，托雷多被联合国教科文组织评为世界文化遗产。因此，如果你有出游计划，不妨去卡斯蒂利亚-拉曼恰，听一听古老风车的低语，感受塞万提斯笔下的自由与勇敢。

Castilla-La Mancha, Spain

In the Spanish town of Consuegra, echoes linger of the adventures of Don Quixote, the hero of Miguel de Cervantes' epic novel. This tourist destination in Castilla-La Mancha is famous for its rocky ridge, known as Cerro Calderico, crowned with 12 white windmills. The windmills are thought to have inspired Cervantes to write the famous scene in which Don Quixote mistakes them for an army of giants. With their stone walls and wooden blades, some date back to the 16th century, when they were built to grind grain.

Castilla-La Mancha is the third-largest region—after Castile y León and Andalusia—in Spain but one of the least densely populated. The regional capital city, Toledo, has a significant architectural and cultural legacy—including Old Town and the Catedral de Toledo—that led to its designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1986. So, for your next quest, let the windmills of Castilla-La Mancha whisper their timeless tales in your ear.

粉红色，很好看 Pretty in pink

托雷维耶哈潟湖，阿利坎特，西班牙

大自然中的水是什么颜色？我们的第一反应通常是蓝色或绿色。但是你见过粉色的水吗？这片粉红湖泊就是西班牙阿利坎特的托雷维耶哈潟湖。这个湖泊的含盐度非常高，湖面上还有自然形成的盐结晶团，使它成为富含胡萝卜素的微生物藻类繁殖的完美家园，因此才形成了这片粉红的水域。这里的甲壳类动物吃掉这些藻类后，也会变成粉色，进而又被火烈鸟吃掉，最终让火烈鸟也变成了粉色。

Laguna de Torrevieja, Spain

When we encounter bodies of water in nature, we might expect hues of blue, from the pale cyan shade of lagoons to the navy blue of deep lakes. But pink water—where on Earth could that be found? At (deep breath) El Parque Natural de Las Lagunas de La Mata y Torrevieja in Alicante, Spain. Here, there are two lakes: one green and one pink, and it is the latter that you see on our homepage. The highly saline water, dotted with clusters of salt crystals, is the perfect environment for microscopic algae, which are rich in carotenes. This results in the rosy tinge that protects the algae from solar radiation. And the pink is just getting started, as the algae are eaten by tiny crustaceans, which turn pink and are then eaten by flamingos, which acquire the rosy hue as well.

准备好欢庆吧！

拉曼加，穆尔西亚，西班牙

拉曼加是一个西班牙小镇，位于伊比利亚半岛的东南部。镇上不仅风景优美，还有公园、竞技场、海滩等等。

当地还有一种特殊的庆祝活动，人们和花车一同游行，向孩子们抛洒礼物，最后“火葬”一条用纸浆做成的巨大的沙丁鱼，然后以一场盛大的烟花秀圆满结束。

文化交汇的岛屿 An island crossroad of culture

加那利群岛

数千年的时光里，加那利群岛一直是各种文化的交汇地。早在公元前40年，这片火山群岛就引起了罗马人的兴趣；999年，阿拉伯商人又来到了这里。几百年间，热那亚、马略卡、葡萄牙和法国的殖民者也纷至沓来。这里的农业种植历史悠久，香蕉、番茄及土豆是主要农作物。如今，加纳利群岛是西班牙的一部分。最初的航海者来这里寻找贸易机会，而如今的游客来这里探索国家公园、躺在沙滩上放松、以及欣赏壮丽的落日。

The Canary Islands, Spain

Welcome to Fuerteventura, one of Spain's Canary Islands, found nearly 70 miles off the northwestern coast of Africa. For thousands of years, the volcanic islands have served as an international crossroads, attracting the interest of the Romans, Arab traders, and European navigators. Agriculture has long been important here, with bananas, tomatoes, and potatoes among the main crops. But while the first voyagers came in search of trade, today's visitors come to explore the many beautiful national parks and relax on beaches like the Playa del Matorral on Fuerteventura, seen here during a spectacular sunset.

这座古桥在哪呢？ Where is this historical bridge?

古罗马桥，科尔多瓦，西班牙

科尔多瓦的古罗马桥跨越瓜达尔基维尔河，是这座城市的一处历史地标。这座桥始建于公元前1世纪罗马帝国的扩张时期，在历史上曾被多次重建，目前这座桥的主体是在8世纪由阿拉伯人重建。虽然它已经承载了数个世纪的交通往来，但现在这座桥仅供行人通行。如果你觉得它很眼熟，可能是因为你曾在《权力的游戏》第五季中见过它，在剧中它是虚构的瓦兰提斯城的一部分。

Roman bridge of Córdoba, Spain

The Roman bridge of Córdoba, in the ancient Spanish city’s historic center, has been rebuilt several times over the centuries. For 2,000 years it was the city’s only bridge across the Guadalquivir River, originally built in the first century BCE during the expansion of the Roman Empire. Much of the current bridge dates from reconstruction in the 8th century following the Moorish conquest, a period when hundreds of mosques and palaces were built, and Córdoba became one of Europe's largest cities and a center of learning and culture.

While it has seen centuries of traffic, the bridge is now only open to pedestrians, following the opening of the Miraflores Bridge in 2004. If it looks familiar, you might have spotted it standing in as part of the fictional city of Volantis in 'Game of Thrones.'

如此美景在何处？ Where is this scenic view?

阿圭罗村庄，韦斯卡省，西班牙

美丽的阿圭罗村庄位于西班牙韦斯卡省，它坐落在独特的粉灰色群山之中。村庄背后是被称为里格洛斯岩的悬崖，非常适合拍照。这个拥有130位居民的小村庄还有一座建于12世纪的教堂。如果你是历史爱好者、攀岩爱好者，或二者兼修，那就请把阿圭罗列入旅行目的地清单吧。

Agüero, Huesca province, Spain

Residing in the lap of the distinctive pink-grey mountains is the pretty village of Agüero in the Huesca province of Spain. The textured cliffs known as Los Mallos act as a backdrop to the village, making it incredibly photogenic. The miniature village with its 130 inhabitants is a tourist attraction due to the 12th-century Romanesque Church of Santiago. This national monument is also a sight to behold with its intricate carvings of remarkable beasts and religious scenes created by the artist known only as the Master of San Juan de la Pena. If you consider yourself a history buff, a rock climber, or both, put Agüero on your travel list.

庆祝女性 Celebrating women

国际妇女节

今天是国际妇女节，这一天庆祝全世界的妇女，并采取行动创造一个多样化、包容和公平的世界。这一天起源于1910年德国活动家克拉拉·泽特金（Clara Zetkin）在一次会议上提出组织国际日的想法，并于次年开始。历史充满了妇女的重大成就和贡献。玛丽·居里获得了诺贝尔物理学和化学奖。Ada Lovelace于1836年编写了世界上第一个计算机程序。1964年，帕特西·明克是第一位当选美国国会议员的有色人种女性。姐姐Rosetta Tharpe影响了一代人，并帮助创建了摇滚乐流派。今天，我们与所有过去和现在的妇女一起庆祝她们的成就。今天你能做些什么来帮助创造一个性别平等的世界？

International Women's Day

Today is International Women's Day, a day to celebrate women all over the globe and to take action to create a world that's diverse, inclusive, and equitable. The day originated when German activist Clara Zetkin pitched the idea of organizing an international day at a conference in 1910 and it was observed starting the following year. History brims over with the significant accomplishments and contributions of women. Marie Curie won Nobel Prizes in both physics and chemistry. Ada Lovelace wrote the world's first computer program in 1836. In 1964, Patsy Mink was the first woman of color elected to US Congress. Sister Rosetta Tharpe influenced a generation and helped create the genre of rock and roll. Today we celebrate their achievements along with those of all women, past and present. What can you do today to help create a world with gender parity?

今天照片上这个宁静美丽的湖泊是内格拉廷湖，是西班牙安达卢西亚最大的淡水湖之一。内格拉廷湖位于格拉纳达世界地质公园

的中心，由瓜迪亚纳梅诺尔河上的大坝截流而形成，是自然爱好者的天堂。湖边有一个帆船俱乐部，举办各种水上活动，这也使得内格拉廷湖成为了一个亲近大自然和放松身心的度假胜地。湖周围还有壮观的悬崖、沟壑和沙漠。无论春夏秋冬，这里的风景都美得让人窒息。

Negratín Reservoir, Granada, Spain

Step into a world of beauty and serenity with one of the largest freshwater lakes in Andalusia, Spain. The Negratín Reservoir is a nature lover's paradise, created by the Negratín Dam on the Guadiana Menor River and located in the heart of the Granada Geopark. There is a sailing club by the lake, and a variety of aquatic activities make it a popular destination for people looking to relax and unwind in the lap of nature. With imposing cliffs, gullies, and a rugged desert setting all around, the area's landscape is simply breathtaking no matter the time of year.

树木之美 Beauty comes in trees

穆涅略斯自然保护区，西班牙

穆涅略斯自然保护区有西班牙保护最好的栎树森林之一。栎树也被称作普通橡树、欧洲橡木或英国橡树。除橡树外，这片面积13560英亩的保护区内还有无梗花栎。

20世纪70年代起，穆涅略斯自然保护区便禁止伐木和打猎。如今，这里被联合国教科文组织列为生物圈保护区，进入其中的人数都被严格控制。保护区内设有游客中心，大多数游客最远也就能被允许走到这里。因此今天的这张照片，可以说非常珍贵。

Muniellos Nature Reserve

The Muniellos Nature Reserve is one of Spain's best-preserved forests of Quercus robur, otherwise known as common oak, European oak, or English oak. The 13,560-acre reserve in Asturias province also includes sessile oaks, seen in our photo alongside beech trees.

In the 1970s logging was banned in the reserve. Soon after, hunting was also banned. Today, even human access to this UNESCO-designated biosphere is carefully controlled. There's a visitor center, and that's about as far as most tourists are allowed. We're just glad we have photos of this incredible forest.
