Scenic Beauty Atop the Volcano: Yellowstone National Park, USA

🎬 Those who have seen the movie '2012' know that Yellowstone National Park in the United States is one of the world's largest active volcanoes, with the entire national park situated on this volcanic caldera. If this volcano were to erupt, it might truly be like the end of the world as depicted in the movie. 🌋 No one knows when the volcano will erupt, but the national park on top of this volcano is really worth visiting. 🏞️ The attractions in Yellowstone National Park are distributed like the figure 8. Therefore, the tour routes are generally divided into the Upper Loop and Lower Loop. ✅ Upper Loop: Mammoth Hot Springs One of the iconic attractions of Yellowstone National Park, featuring travertine terraces that are quite distinctive, reminiscent of Turkey's Pamukkale. Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone The namesake of Yellowstone National Park, the falls are stunning during the high water season, with yellow rock formations on both sides of the canyon, hence the name Yellowstone. ✅ Lower Loop: Old Faithful The geyser erupts at regular intervals every day, like a punctual and honest person, which is why it's called Old Faithful. However, sometimes there can be slight variations in timing. Grand Prismatic Spring The most representative attraction of Yellowstone National Park, like a prism refracting a rainbow. The view from ground level is average, but you can walk up the hill behind it for the most beautiful view. Yellowstone Lake The lake water is very clear and vast. But the entire lake is actually the center of the volcanic caldera, so the water has a high sulfur content, and you should definitely not drink it. These are just a few of the more famous attractions in Yellowstone National Park. There are many more large and small attractions scattered throughout the park, so give yourself some extra days to slowly take it all in. ⚠️ Important Notes: 1⃣️ Yellowstone National Park is very large, and most areas inside have no cell phone signal. 2⃣️ There are many wild animals in the park, so while protecting the animals, also pay attention to personal safety. 3⃣️ Many boardwalks do not have railings, so be careful where you step. 4⃣️ The calcified ground near hot springs and geysers may be a thin shell with nothing underneath, so do not go down. 5⃣️ There are not many restaurants inside (there is one near Old Faithful), so prepare food in advance.
