6 Umpherston SinkholeUmpherston天坑
天坑 - SA最迷人的景点之一,在甘比尔山Mt Gambier - 也被称为沉没的花园,曾经是一个山洞。溶洞顶板塌了,詹姆斯Umpherston(姓)在19世纪80年代将它变成一个花园。
One of the most fascinating spots in SA, the sinkhole in Mt Gambier - also known as the Sunken Garden , was a cave once. The cave roof collapsed, and it was turned into a garden by James Umpherston in the 1880s.
7. Lake Eyre 艾尔湖
At 15 metres below sea level, the salt lake is the lowest point in Australia - but looks pretty amazing when it floods . The Lake Eyre Basin covers a sixth of the continent, and on those very rare occasions when it fills , it becomes the largest lake in the country. That's when it teems with birds and fish
在海平面15米以下,盐湖是澳大利亚的最低点 - 但当泛洪时,看起来是相当惊人的。艾尔湖盆地涵盖了六分之一的大陆,在非常罕见的场合,一但填满水,就成了全国最大的湖泊。这时候,那里有丰富的鸟类和鱼类
But it’s not long before the lake completely changes, as seen in this photo, which shows the ‘normal’ saltwaters of Lake Eyre to the left, and the algae-rich lake after flooding to the right, separated by a sandbar.
但不需时日,湖景就会有完全的改变,图中照片,左侧显示的是'正常'时期咸水的艾尔湖,右侧显示的是泛洪后水浸,藻类丰富时,其间是沙洲分隔。
8.Hallett Cove's ice age
No, it's not just another suburb of Adelaide - it's one of the country's most extraordinary geological sites . The northern cliff tops contain the best record of an Australian ice age , and have international significance. You can literally see the changes the country has gone through over millions of years.
不,它不只是阿德莱德的一个郊区- 它是澳国最不寻常的地质遗迹之一。北部悬崖顶上包含有澳大利亚冰河时代的最佳记录,并具有国际意义。你简直可以从遗迹上直接解读亿万年的沧桑变化。

9. Whyalla's giant cuttlefish
Technically they're citizens of the sea, but between May and August these cuttlefish gather in one place to breed - False Bay, near Whyalla. Where they come from - and where the babies go - is a mystery.

9.怀阿拉的巨型乌贼
从技术上讲,他们是大海的公民,但在5月和8月之间,这些墨鱼聚集在一个地方 - 近怀阿拉的福尔斯湾,育种繁殖。他们来自哪里 - 婴儿会游去到哪里 - 仍是一个谜。
巨型乌贼尝试打动对方,它们的交配仪式在怀阿拉附近。有没有任何结果?是否产下小墨鱼?我们无从得知
10. Piccaninnie Ponds
Above Piccaninnie Ponds, near Mt Gambier, it's a flat wetlands area of reeds, birds and other wildlife. But beneath the surface is an extraordinary network of limestone caves , including a 100m sinkhole known as The Chasm. There's even (mainly online) rumours of a second cave below that.
Piccaninnie池塘
在Piccaninnie池塘上,甘比尔山附近,是一处平坦的湿地。 那里有芦苇,鸟类和其他野生动物。但在表面之下,是一个非同寻常的石灰石洞穴网络,包括一个100米的天坑被称为鸿沟The Chasm。甚至在下面还有第二洞,(主要是在网络中)的传言。

11 在Piccaninnie池塘潜水
南澳大利亚东南方的Piccaninnie池塘的表面。谁知道在这些静止的水域下方是什么?
Well, actually it’s this — crystal clear water filters through immense limestone caves. Picture: Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities
嗯,其实这是个天然滤水器 - 通过巨大的石灰岩洞穴过滤,涓涓清澈的水流出来。
(pangpang 注:有个熟悉的朋友单身时曾经经常驾驶单程5小时, 就是为了到这里潜水。) |
