Wonderful moving Moreno glacier

The Perito Moreno glacier in Argentina is known as one of the eight wonders in the world. It is located at the south end of South America, near 52 degrees south latitude. In the territory of Santa Cruz, Argentina, it is one of the few active glaciers on the earth where ice and snow are still advancing. Its front is 4000 meters wide, 60 meters high, and 34 kilometers long. The ice caps are endless.

Moreno glacier has a history of 200000 years. It looks like a huge 'ice wall'. It moves forward at a speed of 30 cm every day (it is said that the speed is 2 meters every day). Under it, people will feel the breath of the ice age.
