Five wonders of the world's artificial natural landscape: China terraced fields are on the list.

Asian paddy field

In China, the ever-changing rice fields stretch for 50 miles, especially in the morning and evening sunshine. Rice winds its way through the lush green slopes of China, reaching into the clouds. Although it is actually completely man-made, it is still a spectacle of visiting tourists and an important part of the infrastructure of farmers in Asia.

Terraces can reduce soil erosion, but completely practical engineering feats have turned terraced landscape itself into a tourist attraction.

The rice terraces in China, built on the mountain, have a long history of 2,000 years, so they are listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Glass beach, California, USA

It used to be a garbage dump in the city, but now it is an amazing and unique beach. This coastline is paved with glass beads polished by waves.

Bottles, cans and all kinds of domestic garbage were pushed into the sea from the cliff. In the 20th century, after the government cleaned up these rubbish, tons of glass left on the beach were washed away by the ocean for many years, becoming the "glass beach" we see today. On the coastline near the north, these pebbles of broken glass are formed, which are colorful and dazzling, and become famous tourist attractions on the north coast of California, even the "sea glass" museum.

Beautiful? Providence Canyon, Georgia, USA

This canyon is affectionately called "Little Grand Canyon" and belongs to one of the seven natural wonders of Georgia. However, few people know that it is artificial.

Towering rock walls and deep valleys are formed by bad farming methods. At that time, farmers dug ditches to irrigate the land, resulting in ditches several feet deep, and water runoff and erosion doubled. For decades, the flow of water and sand helped create nearly vertical peaks that can be seen today.

Flying fountains in Nevada

The geyser in Nevada is an accidental miracle. Located in the dry lake bed of the ancient lake in Blackstone Desert, 32 kilometers north of Geraker, Washaw County, there are many geysers there. Like volcanic eruptions and earthquakes, geysers and hot springs are the release windows of huge energy hidden under the surface.

Residents nearby dug a well while looking for irrigation water and found that the water was too hot, so the project was quickly abandoned, but the first fountain was formed.

A geothermal power generation company drilled a test well at the site and then formed a geyser. Water and calcium carbonate deposits sprayed from the hole began to form, growing several inches every year, forming three hills. Due to the algae growing on the external rocks, the hills appear beautiful red and green. These two biological and chemical reactions are now combined to form a beautiful colorful stratum, and three conical domes spew out hot air.

Chuk lagoon in Micronesia (Federated States of)

Chuk Lagoon is an atoll in the central Pacific Ocean, about 1, 120 miles from the coast of New Guinea. Tropical fish, colorful corals, turtles and even sharks can be found in this diver's paradise. But in fact, this is the Japanese fleet that sank in World War II.

With the passage of time, the sunken ship has become a hub full of marine life. Now, this ship surrounded by coral seems to be almost a part of the seabed and a cradle of marine life.
