環(huán)球之旅:帶你走進(jìn)美國(guó)10大怪異奇妙的地方
6. Meteor Crater, Arizona: The second most impressive hole in Arizona was formed by a fiery meteor that screamed into the atmosphere about 50,000 years ago, when giant sloths lived in these parts. Meteor Crater, 40 miles east of Flagstaff, is an out-of-this-world site for those with a thimbleful of imagination. Nearly a mile across and 600ft deep, there are lookout points around the crater's edge but no hiking to the bottom. Check out the fun, informative visitor center.
亞利桑那州 隕石坑:亞利桑那州第二大印象深刻的洞是由于流星形成的,5萬年以前流星呼嘯而來到這個(gè)地區(qū),當(dāng)時(shí)高大的樹懶住在那里。隕石坑在Flagstaff東40公里,對(duì)于那些沒有太多想象力的人來說是一個(gè)世外桃源。將近一公里長(zhǎng),600英尺深,在坑邊有觀景點(diǎn)但沒有去坑底的路。去體驗(yàn)樂趣,充實(shí)游客中心。
7. Coral Castle, Florida: This favored stop in Homestead is one man's kitschy do-it-yourself testament to lost love: Latvian immigrant Ed Leedskalnin dug up over 2.2 million tons of coral rock to build this mock castle. Its engineering was once a bit of mystery, especially since the broken-hearted Romeo worked secretively at night without using any mortar. Some claim that the marvel has unusual electromagnetic properties.
福羅里達(dá)州 珊瑚城堡:Homestead的這個(gè)景點(diǎn)是一個(gè)技藝嫻熟的男人自己動(dòng)手見證失去的愛:拉脫維亞移民Ed Leedskalnin挖了超過220萬噸的珊瑚石建立了這個(gè)假的城堡。它的工程曾經(jīng)是一個(gè)謎,特別是這個(gè)心碎的羅密歐在晚上秘密的工作,不用任何灰泥。有人聲稱,這個(gè)奇觀有不同尋常的電磁性質(zhì)。
8. Lucy the Margate Elephant, New Jersey: Drive around the beach communities just south of Atlantic City and something massive, gray and kitsch will stop you in your tracks: Lucy the Margate Elephant,a 65ft-high wooden pachyderm constructed in 1881 as a developer's truly weird scheme to attract land buyers to the area. It was variously used as a hotel, beach cottage, private mansion and last, a tavern, but rowdy patrons almost destroyed her. Now recognized on the National Register of Historic Places, Lucy is open for tours during summer, starting every half hour, weather permitting.
新澤西 露西 馬爾蓋特大象:在大西洋城以南的海灘社區(qū)附近駕駛,一個(gè)巨大的灰色俗氣的東西會(huì)讓你停下來:露西 馬爾蓋特大象,1881年建造的一個(gè)65英尺高的木質(zhì)厚皮動(dòng)物,因?yàn)殚_發(fā)者的古怪計(jì)劃是吸引這一地區(qū)的土地買家。開始它的用途廣泛,作為旅店,海邊小木屋,私人府邸。最后變成酒店,但喧鬧的顧客幾乎毀了她。現(xiàn)在,GJ歷史名勝注冊(cè),Lucy在夏季對(duì)游客開放,天氣允許的話每半小時(shí)開放一次。
