Half of 2023 has already got over. It has brought new enthusiasm with it and many people are planning to visit. In such a situation, if you are thinking of going on a foreign trip, then today we have brought information about the 5 most beautiful places in the world for you.
Belize Maya Forest Reserve
Recently a big campaign has started to save the largest tropical rainforest in America. In April 2021, a group of conservationists bought 236,000 acres of tropical rainforest in north-western Belize to form the 'Belize Maya Forest Reserve'. This only reserve protects about 10 percent of Belize. It protects more than 400 species of birds, including the national animal of Belize, the tapir, and the black howler monkey. Apart from this, efforts are also being made to save the rapidly decreasing population of Jaguar in Central America.
Northern Minnesota
Millions of stars dazzle him over northern Minnesota. There is no light pollution in this remote area bordering the Canadian province of Ontario, thanks to the population living here. Efforts are being made to make it the biggest dark sky destination on Earth. Its two largest parts are in Minnesota. First, the 'Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness', which is the world's largest dark sky sanctuary made up of millions of acres. Second, Voyageurs National Park, which is the country's first International Dark Sky Park. Both these places have also received Dark Sky Certification in the year 2020. In addition, Ontario's Quetico Province Park received International Dark Sky Park status as early as 2021.
Lake Baikal, Russia
The deep and vast Lake Baikal is considered by the residents to be an ocean. Spread over 12,200 miles and 2,442 feet deep, this lake is a wonderful sight of nature. However, the crisis is now looming over this lake. Lake Baikal registered in the UNESCO World Heritage Site (1996), has been a victim of pollution in the last few years. As a result, the 'International Union for Conservation of Nature' has also expressed concern about it in 2020. The Visitors are working with the Great Baikal Trail Association to save it. According to the president of the organization, 'This non-profit environmental group is building a long walking route around the lake. Along with this, ecotourism infrastructure is also being promoted here.
Caprivi Strip, Namibia
Namibia is known for its deserts, high dunes, and dry mountains. But here in the Caprivi Strip, there are many green forests and wildlife. The rivers like Okavango, Kwando, Chobe, and Zambezi here make it an ideal habitat for many species of animals. The area was known for military activities during the second half of the 20th century. This was a prime corridor for armed groups, so not everyone was allowed to go there. But as soon as Namibia became independent in 1990, wildlife and peace were restored. The 'Nakasa Rupara National Park' located in its eastern part is like a mysterious treasure. In recent years a ranger station and tent lodge have been opened here which has made tourism more accessible.
Victoria, Australia
Greenery has started spreading again on Australia's Great Ocean Road. This is the same place, about 72,000 square miles of which was burnt to ashes in the bushfires of 2019-2020. About three dozen people and crores of animals died in these accidents. New wildlife is a marvel in Victoria's Otways region, just off the Great Ocean Road amid lush ancient forests and waterfalls. It's the brainchild of Brian Massey, landscape designer for The Hobbiton Movie Set Tour of New Zealand. Massey has worked closely with botanists, scientists, zoologists, and environmental specialists.
