Ten natural wonders in the world
1. Uyuni salt lake (Bolivia)
Uyuni salt lake is the largest salt marsh in the world. It is about 250 kilometers long from east to west, about 100 kilometers wide from south to north, with an area of 10582 square kilometers, rich in rock salt and gypsum. According to research, millions of years ago, here was a vast ocean, with the rising of the earth's crust, the sea water gradually receded, leaving one lake after another.
During the rainy season, the Uyuni salt lake will become a huge 'mirror', which makes the sky and the earth connect seamlessly. Such a beautiful and spectacular spectacle seems to be a fictional picture scroll, which is breathtaking.
2. Danxia landform (China)
Danxia landform refers to the red clastic rock formed by uneven cementation of horizontal or gentle layered iron calcium（ It is mainly conglomerate and sandstone), which is cut by vertical or high angle joints, and formed by the comprehensive action of differential weathering, gravity collapse, flowing water dissolution, wind erosion, etc., and has the shape of Castle, pagoda, needle, column, rod, square mountain or peak forest.
In 2010, Danxia landform was listed in the world cultural heritage list by UNESCO.
This unique landform extends more than 1000 miles to the southwest and southeast of China respectively. So how did this happen? It's because of the response of the surface layer to the earth's pressure and the influence of the environment for millions of years.
3. Cotton Castle (Turkey)
Pamukkale is located in the southwest of Denizli City, Turkey. It is a famous hot spring resort. There are not only natural hot springs for thousands of years, but also such strange cotton like hills. Nature's uncanny workmanship has created such a wonderful fairyland.
Since ancient times, cotton fort has had a scene where blue-green water flows into cotton white terraced tufa (a porous calcium carbonate) pool, which is illuminated by calcium carbonate deposits.
4. Dead lake basin (Namibia)
The dead lake basin is a clay Lake Basin, located in Namibia's nocrof Park, near another more famous salt lake basin called sosuvila. The dead lake basin can also be called a salt lake basin.
Even if you don't know Dutch, you can really feel the beautiful scenery here. The death lake basin is the 'death' Wetland in the Namib Desert: towering rusty red sand dunes surround a white plain covered with thousands of year-old sun tanned trees.
5. Lakis marages National Park (Brazil)
Located in the northern Brazilian state of Marangon (Google map), the Chinese translation of the name is lac í s Mara hesses, a white desert of about 1.55 million hectares.
Across the Amazon River in northeastern Brazil, you can see a 600 square mile alternate dune and a rainwater pond. There is no way to get to Lakesi Mara hesses National Park, so you have to go in a four wheeled boat. The best time to visit here is from June to July after the rainy season, when the pond will be full of water.
6. White desert (Egypt)
The white desert is located in the farafarah oasis in the west of Egypt, and the desert is 45 kilometers north of farafarafarah. The sand is creamy white, in sharp contrast to the surrounding yellow desert. Towering chalky rock formations stand in the desert of Egypt, like a huge mushroom group. It is actually carved out of sandstorms for thousands of years.
The white desert has a different place from the general desert: there are wind 'carved' rock figures. The shapes of rock figures range from mushrooms to crickets.
7. Klimtu volcano Lake (Indonesia)
The shoreline of Laoren lake is covered with a thin film of different hues, such as red, orange and yellow, whose color depends on the thickness of the film. Gypsum crystals grow in cracks in the inner wall of the crater a few meters from the water.
Crimutu volcano is located on the Indonesian island of Flores. The three deep-water lakes at the mouth of the volcano are impressive and unforgettable. The three lakes are called "old man Lake", "Youth Lake" and "ghost Lake". What's more surprising is that the water color of these three lakes always changes from blue or green to black or red from time to time.
8. Zhangjiajie (China)
Wulingyuan scenic area has the world's rare quartz sandstone peak forest gorge landform. It is composed of China's first National Forest Park Zhangjiajie National Forest Park, Tianzishan nature reserve, SUOXIYU nature reserve and yangjiajie. The scenic area covers an area of 264.6 square kilometers. It is one of the first batch of world natural heritage sites, the first batch of geoparks and countries in China The first batch of 5A tourist attractions.
Zhangjiajie is located in Hunan Province, China. There are many quartzite blocks, and many of them are thousands of feet high. Here brings a lot of inspiration to the artists. The hit movie Avatar in 2009 was set here.
9. Richardt structure (Mauritania)
On satellite images, Charlotte's structure looks like the eyes of a giant staring at the Sahara desert. The 30 mile diameter circle is caused by wind erosion of a huge volcanic mound.
At first, the terrain was thought to be formed by meteorite collision. At present, geologists believe that it may be caused by the rise of geological structure or erosion. The formation of this ring shape is still a mystery.
10. Hutt lagoon (Australia)
Hutt lagoon in Western Australia is a beautiful pink, just like a shy bride. The lake is saltier than other lakes. It is a rare pink Lake in the world. The reason why the lake turns pink is that there is a kind of algae that can produce carotenoids in the lake.
Pink lakes like this include the rose Lake in Senegal and the grey rose Lake in Canada.
