Iceland, the most lunar-like, has geological wonders all over the country and used to be a training ground for simulating a lunar landing

 Iceland, is a magical existence, glaciers, waterfalls, geothermal, volcanoes, wilderness, and so on, the original unique natural terrain, spectacular and shocking geological wonders, is very different from the rest of the earth, even the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA compared Iceland to the most lunar place on earth, some people say :" can not go to the sky, can not go to the moon, go to Iceland ."
Iceland, located at the junction of the Atlantic shanghai to hong kong flights Ocean and the Arctic Ocean, has a land area of only 100,000 square kilometers and a population of 330,000, the smallest population density in Europe. However, it is a geological wonder created by crustal movements 20 million years ago. Iceland's magic six, respectively: volcanoes, geothermal hot springs, ancient glaciers, waterfalls, geysers, black beaches.
 As a volcanic, geologically active island country, iceland has been known as the "pole ring fire island ". There are about 300 volcanoes, large and small, in every corner of the country, although most of them are dormant, but there are still 40 to 50 active volcanoes. So those volcanoes, which look aloof and desolate, are actually scary time bombs.
 Iceland is one of the world's most abundant shanghai to hkg natural hot springs, with more than 200 places, thanks to its many restless volcanoes and its rich geothermal resources, the world's famous blue lake (Blue Lagoon). Blue lake has an average water temperature of about 40℃, because the lake is rich in silicon, sulfur and other minerals, so it presents a faint blue, is a necessary place for global tourists to Iceland.
 Rich in geothermal resources, iceland has also brought a world-famous geologic wonder —— the geyser (Geyser), the first documented intermittent spout of human hot springs, compared to the "underground natural boiler ", with an average interval of about five minutes of spout, up to 70 meters high, the spout of the water column has also become one of iceland's landmarks.
 Iceland's waterfall is also the most "eye-catching" natural landscape, its territory has hundreds of magnificent waterfalls, of which the southern gold waterfall is the most famous. Located 125km east of the capital reykjavik, the great waterfall ,2500 meters wide and 70 meters high, is iceland's largest fault canyon waterfall, where melting water from glaciers has accumulated huge energy, surging water from the height down the "fold" into the narrow valley, the scene is very spectacular.
The Black Beach in southern Iceland is also a peculiar landscape of Iceland. Adjacent to the picturesque, far-off town of Vic, the sand on the beach is pure black, after the eruption of the volcano, the high-temperature magma quickly cooled by the sea, forming fine particles of lava. Walking on the black beach, facing the surging waves, large areas of reef gravel, will undoubtedly produce loneliness and sadness.
 Iceland's most striking is the largest wartner ice sheet outside the earth's polar regions. Over time, thousands of years of glaciers have weathered and broken into countless scattered ice and ice crystals, flowing down, accumulating into the charming eugushon ice lake, dreamy lake water, crystal clear floating ice, is regarded as Iceland's most tourist value of the invincible scenery, breathtaking.
 The tundra, which is mainly distributed in the arctic circle and above the temperate and cold temperate alpine tree lines, is a mainly mossy vegetation belt with large tundra zones on the eurasian and northern margins of the north american continent, as is the case in iceland. The icelandic tundra lies not far west of the wartner ice sheet, and its eyes are covered with green "mossy fields ", making it seem like crossing into a" magical realm ".
 The crustal movement of the ancient Atlantic Ocean and the eruption of the sea floor caused Iceland to rise from the bottom of the sea, creating this "hidden wonders" with numerous geological wonders. That is why iceland has been chosen as a venue for films such as star wars, interstellar travel, ephemeral adventures, and daydreamer. It was also selected by the u.s. space agency as a simulated training site in 1965 and 1967 in the early days of the apollo lunar landing program.
