新西蘭

(2018-11-08 05:57:41) 下一個

計劃一月末去新西蘭,先做一下功課。

有人說,新西蘭是人間最後的天堂。我說,這個魔戒之國真的美得一塵不染,美得氣勢磅礴。

新西蘭可能是唯一一個集所有勝景元素於一的國家。巍峨秀美的雪山,與天接際的大海,寬闊平穩的江河,清澈如鏡的湖麵;千年的熱帶雨林,見證億年滄海桑田的礁石峭壁;無垠的草場和如雪球的成群綿羊。它們交替出現,變換著組合,且你不需跋涉,因為美麗就在你臥室的窗外,在你趕赴下一個市鎮的道路兩邊。

晴朗的時候天定是透徹的藍,陰天的時候則薄霧繚繞山峰若影若現。雨過天晴時,本就透明的周遭更變得晶瑩,藍色更藍,綠色更綠,黃色更鮮,紅色更亮。
