What's interesting about the North Pole?

I think this is the cleanest and most beautiful place. Glaciers are everywhere, transparent and dazzling, towering snow-capped mountains, towering white. When you set foot here, you feel cold, but you also feel quiet and beautiful.

This is the North Pole, a place that is slowly melting, but such a beautiful place is suffering from such a crisis. We are worried and sorry. Before we do something, let's go and have a look and keep a memory in our hearts.

So, many people will ask, what do you do when you travel to the North Pole? Just look at the glaciers. Is there anything interesting here? Bian Xiao tells you that there is a lot of fun here. Next, look at Bian Xiao and introduce it to everyone!

longyearbyen

The northernmost city in the world

Longyearbyen is the boarding place for many expedition ships to the North Pole, and it is also the northernmost city in the whole earth. It is located at 78 north latitude, only 1300 kilometers away from the North Pole, which is the closest place that ordinary people can reach.

The city itself is a legend.

Longyearbyen has more than 2,000 residents, but there are as many as 5,000 polar bears living in Svalbard, and even road signs will indicate that vehicles should be careful of polar bears. It is said that polar bears can be seen 500 meters outside the city.

There is the northernmost bank university in the world, but the most talked about is the World Seed Bank, which bears the future of eschatology.

Known as the Noah's Ark of global agriculture, it has stored more than 654.38+0 million seed samples.

In 20 15, the seven-year-old seed bank received the first application for seed extraction, which came from war-torn Syria.

Due to the influence of climate, the underground of Longyearbyen is almost frozen soil, which makes the buried bodies not rot and the bacteria not die. It is said that it is also the only city in the world where death is forbidden.

Before boarding the boat, we were lucky enough to see the short autumn in the northern city, the colorful houses on the golden polar meadow, and the Nordic fairy tales come true at the ends of the earth.

The amazing North Pole

The magnificent and vast land given by God.

I can't tell you how beautiful the North Pole is. The so-called beautiful skins are the same, but the North Pole has given 10,000 footnotes about beauty at the northernmost part of the earth, where she waits for travelers on the Wan Li Road, ignoring them and opposing beauty.

There is a whale fat village on Amsterdam Island. Dutch whalers built whale stoves here more than 400 years ago, and now this huge cave that has been extinguished for more than 400 years is still on the island.

There are countless glaciers in the Arctic, but none is as dazzling as Monaco glacier. The sun is shining, as if it were a jewel scattered from the cosmetic box of the gods.

The scenery of konstanz Fjord is unpredictable. Not far away, it is a huge Arctic tundra, and in the distance, it is a towering mountain with snow all year round. On the other side, the Wannian glacier goes straight to the bottom of the sea.

The shape of Lily Hook Glacier is quite unique. Glaciers flowing out of the mountains have gathered into a magnificent and unique landscape. In our view, it is a beautiful glacier, but scientists can infer the influence of seawater temperature and pollutants on the Arctic glacier from the stripes on the Arctic clam shell.

New Olsen, the northernmost town in the world, is an international Arctic research center. Many countries have established scientific research stations here, and China's Arctic Yellow River Station is also here. If the weather is fine, we will also visit this "little United Nations".

Aurora will occasionally visit this God-given land. From mid-September, looking up at the Milky Way at midnight, the goddess in colorful tulle satin will appear soon!

Arctic creatures

Unique arctic elves

Polar bears face to face with the sea through the floating ice. They sometimes swim in the sea to sneak up on the seals on the ice, and sometimes wait for puffins and three-toed gulls falling from the sky with the Arctic fox under the steep cliff of Mount Echo.

The melting fresh water of Monaco Glacier meets the seawater, attracting three-toed gulls and Arctic terns to hunt here.

In the north of Spitsbergen, there is a magical place that combines scarlet peaks, golden vegetation and transparent icebergs. Seals are drying their bellies, and reindeer on the shore are drinking water.

The home of the big-toothed walrus is on the nearby island of Moffin. They inhabit the rocky coastline one by one, and the scene is very spectacular. At first glance, some scary walruses actually have poor eyesight, and their tusks have been growing all their lives.

Many kinds of whales live in Arctic waters. Their huge bodies jumped out of the water one after another, and the seawater splashed by their tails sprinkled on their companions, with a rainbow of momentum, but free and agile. Every movement reveals 65,438+000% mastery of your body.

Iceland

After Game of Thrones, Iceland has completed the transformation from "Nordic minority tourist destination" to "theater fan punching place", but fortunately, Iceland, which has received countless tourists, is still the purest place in Northern Europe.

Blue Lake

Iceland's "national treasure hot spring"

Not far from the southwest of Reykjavik, the capital, there is a geothermal hot spring popular with tourists. There are many reasons, but it seems to be because it is so beautiful.

Seawater absorbs heat from underground volcanic lava layers and combines with many beneficial minerals. On the surface of the earth, it becomes a magical hot spring to relieve stress and fatigue, not to mention the hot spring mud at the bottom of the lake is a substance that has been proved by Icelandic medical college to be beneficial to human body.

The milky blue lake is warm and comfortable, and the mist from transpiration spreads. Night arrival, waiting for the graceful dance of the goddess Aurora in the hot spring pool.

Golden circle

Impact the wonderful nature

The so-called Golden Circle is actually just three world-famous scenic spots in Iceland. Because it is close, it is dubbed "Golden Circle".

Sinville National Park is the first birthplace of parliamentary democracy in the world, which is of great humanistic value to the Icelandic people.

However, we prefer to regard this national park as a live-action movie of continental plate movement. Unlike islands that are generally separated from the mainland, Iceland does not belong to any continent.

The junction of the North American plate and the Eurasian plate is a mid-ocean ridge that sinks to the bottom of the sea. Numerous earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and plate movements have pushed Iceland out of the sea.

The volcano here has been silent for more than 2000 years. There is a piece of green in the national park. The low moss covers the surface of the lava field, and the huge rift valley makes this scenery more magnificent.

Geicher Geyser is less than an hour's drive from Sinville National Park, but you can obviously feel the increasingly active volcano and geothermal energy along the way. Many steam caves emit underground hot air, and the town is full of hot springs.

There are countless hot springs, spouts and boiling swamps in the valley, but they have been soaked by various minerals from underground for a long time. The hills and soil also show unparalleled magnificent colors, and the misty fog accompanied by geothermal transpiration is like a fairyland.

Geyser Geyser comes from the word "eruption" in Icelandic, but its eruption frequency is too difficult to predict, which is inextricably linked with geothermal activity and crustal changes. It once broke out every half hour, but it was silent for several years.

Stoke Geyser, which is very close to Geicher Geyser, erupts every 8 minutes, and the water column with a height of more than 20 feet becomes the new favorite of tourists.

Golden Waterfall is the largest fault canyon waterfall in Iceland. The river suddenly turned left one kilometer above the Golden Waterfall, and then fell into a curved three-step "ladder".

Instantly it flows into the two "steps" below, namely 1 1 and12m, and finally it pours into a canyon crack with a depth of 32m, forming a magnificent golden waterfall.

The splash from the waterfall and the sunshine interweave into a long rainbow, which is the most colorful spectacle that photographers can't miss.

Vic town

Black sand and white water freehand brushwork

Vic means "town" in old Norwegian. It is a small place with only 600 permanent residents, but there are many famous places around it.

Black beaches and sunny days chase each other, but the waves in the North Atlantic are in sharp contrast. These tiny particles come from the fiery magma after volcanic eruption, and today's beautiful scenery is formed after the rapid cooling of seawater. Because it is so famous, even this reef has a name-Bijia Mountain.

Seriyalan Waterfall is 60 meters high. At first glance, it is an ordinary place. Only when you look around the water curtain can you discover the mystery. The water curtain is close at hand and the sun shines directly on it.

The world outside the waterfall is framed by nature, and the filter composed of floating water droplets and waterfall rainbow makes people sigh the wonder of nature.

The forest waterfall is 25 meters wide and is one of the largest waterfalls in Iceland. It's magnificent. The dense water vapor makes rainbows a frequent visitor, and seeing double rainbows is a symbol of luck.

Snay mountain peninsula

A complete miniature of Iceland

Snay Mountain Peninsula is famous for its mission mountain, and it is also called Straw Hat Mountain because of its appearance resembling a straw hat.

However, the scenery connected by the coastal roads on the island is showing the unique beauty of Iceland to the world. The silent volcano is covered with snow, the town is built beside the coastline, and the rocks on the beach are like castles.

Volcanic caves formed 8,000 years ago give people a beautiful illusion of exploring the center of the earth, as well as the "lifting stones" used by fishermen to show their strength in the past.

It is as pure as heaven, but full of fireworks.

Hailishen

Exquisite anti-ice ship

Built by the Danish government, Hailishen was originally a cruise ship serving Greenland, with an ice level of 1B, but it can reach 1A if it is strictly in accordance with modern standards, that is to say, it can advance at least 9.26 km/h on rivers covered with ice floes.

This is a very delicate anti-ice ship, with a width of only 1 1 m and a shallow draft, which means that it can navigate in hidden fjords all over the Arctic, allowing travelers to get close to those unknown beauty.

Whole-boat sea view room

Helius has no inner cabin, and all 26 spacious cabins are equipped with windows facing the sea.

Scandinavian style rooms have complete infrastructure. In addition to separate bathrooms, deluxe rooms and above also have a reception area, which makes comfort infinitely close to home.

Comfortable public areas

The panoramic lounge is located on the fifth deck of Helios, and its height gives it a nearly perfect perspective, allowing you to have a panoramic view of the surrounding scenery. There will also be related lectures here, and experienced explorers and polar experts will tell us the story of the Arctic with the help of real scenes outside the window.

The library is also in the hall, responsible for soothing people's souls and stomachs during non-dinner time.

The observation deck outside the lounge is spacious enough to enjoy the coastal scenery and Arctic creatures. It is not difficult to imagine that this will become a "stronghold" for photographers.

While it is still there, while the weather is just right, while the years are still waiting for you, come here, see the North Pole here once, and see the glaciers here once.
