1339. Golden Waterfall (5/5)

The name of the Golden Waterfall comes from its unique geographical location. (8)

Wang Bo read the travel magazine and said that due to the turbulent waterfall, the water droplets splashed out of the pouring river water will permeate the sky, which will show golden yellow under the sunlight, as if the entire waterfall was forged with gold, and the scene is extremely magnificent.

He drove to the waterfall parking lot with anticipation. He could already see the waterfall here, but he could only see the mist in the sky, and the golden yellow was not seen at all.

"Is there no sunshine today?" Lao Wang looked up in confusion, and then saw a sun with soft light hanging high in the sky.

Eva said: "The reputation of this kind of attraction is always a bit exaggerated. Besides, it is winter now, and the sun is so weak that it is normal that you cannot see gold."

Wang Bo sighed regretfully: "Then let's go and have a look."

The waterfall was thundering, and the sound was like thunder.

In this case, naturally, you cannot take the baby to the front. Bo's mother stayed to take care of the child, and the other four people walked forward together.

Because there are Xiao Wang, the brawny guy and the fat cat brothers in the car, Wang Bo doesn’t have to worry about the safety of his mother and children, not to mention that Iceland’s public security ranks first in the world.

Since 2012, this country has been officially selected as the peaceful country in the world by UNESCO.

The selection referenced many indicators, such as crime rate, political situation stability, the proportion of prison population to the total social population, etc. Many items in Iceland rank first.

For example, Wang Bo has only been to Iceland for three days this time, and he has developed an habit of Icelanders, that is, when they go shopping, they will tie their pets outside, and even leave their babies outside the door. Who dares to do this in other parts of the world?

Iceland is in the off-season of tourism this season, with few tourists and not many people coming to watch the Golden Waterfall.

When the four of them walked to the observation deck, they saw dozens of people watching and taking photos on the entire river bank, and they were spread out sparsely.

But this is just right. If there are fewer people, Wang Bo can go to the front line to watch this waterfall. The golden waterfall may not be worthy of its name, but it is indeed huge in scale and shocking the sky!

The width of 25oo meters and the height of 70 meters is nothing in numbers, but when I got to the front, Wang Bo looked around and felt really shocked.

The sun shines on the incense burner and purple smoke grows, and the waterfall hangs in front of the river from afar.

The flying flow down three thousand feet, and it was suspected that the Milky Way fell to the sky.

Because the mist is everywhere, Wang Bo cannot see that it is 2,500 meters away. This gives him a feeling that the waterfall is vast and seems to have no end.

The turbulent water flowed down with the momentum, and then poured into the canyon with a force of tens of meters. With a drop of tens of meters, the water flowed against the earth and made a deafening roar.

Eva went to buy four pairs of earplugs and handed them to three people one pair. Wang Bo only felt much better after bringing the earplugs.

But in this way, there is no such shock as the waterfall itself.

There was someone sitting there sketching and painting on the observation deck where they were. Wang Bo went over and looked at it. The man turned his head and laughed loudly, "Are you tourists?"

He nodded and said, "Yes, come here to see the name."

The man stopped his brush and said regretfully: "It's a pity that the season you came is wrong. Spring is green, summer is dazzling sunshine, autumn is flocking with birds, now there is nothing, and the water flow is the lowest throughout the year."

Wang Bo said: "But it's still very shocking. This is the first time I have seen such a big waterfall."

"What you see is not the whole view of the waterfall. It is best to take a helicopter to see the panoramic view, but helicopters cannot operate in winter."

"Why?" Lao Wang didn't mind spending some money on beautiful scenery.

The man pointed to the wet drawing paper and said, "Look, how big is the water mist? You have to know that the water mist will attach to the helicopter's fuselage, wings and even the motive. The temperature is low in winter, what if it freezes?"

As he said that, he introduced Wang Bo to the general situation of the waterfall.

The Golden Waterfall is the largest fault canyon waterfall in Iceland. The river water forms two upper and lower waterfalls here. What they see is the upper waterfall, which is fifty meters high. There is also a lower waterfall when walking downstream.

"You can go down and take a look. The river below has narrowed into a torrent, and there is a lot of delicious salmon. Although this is not the salmon breeding season, you are lucky and you can still eat the freshest salmon without any pollution!"

Wang Bo thanked the man and wished him a happy painting. After taking several photos, they took the tram in the scenic area and walked downstream.

It is said to be downstream, but in fact, the two waterfalls are very close, not as wide as the waterfall, and at most two kilometers away.

Here the river channel becomes narrower rapidly, and there are neat railings on both sides of the shore. Even in winter, the water flow is still terrifyingly rapid.

In this case, there are still people standing in the water to catch fish. Of course, they either stand on stones or on the edge of the river bank, and the river water is relatively shallow.

Wang Bo went down to watch, and someone waved to him and said, "Don't come down, don't come down! Be careful to slide into the water, it's too dangerous here!"

Since that was the case, he stood honestly on it.

As a result, someone next to him laughed and said, "You were scared by him. There is no regulation here that tourists are not allowed to go down to the river bank. As long as you don't pass the railings, there is nothing wrong."

After hearing this, Wang Bo walked down again. Since he arrived at the scenic spot, what is the meaning of the distance view?

These people were either fishing or casting nets to catch fish. Each of them had a water tank around them. He looked over and saw that there were more or less fish in the tank.

An old man next to him started to pull the nets to the shore. The turbulent flow and heavy fishing nets made him unable to catch up. It seemed that the action of pulling the nets was very difficult.

Seeing this, Wang Bo took off his coat and walked over, taking over the position of the old man's hands, like an ancient woman spinning yarn, turning the elbows of his arms outward, and then using the strength of his chest to close the net backward.

Seeing his movements, the old man let go of his hand, and he saw that Wang Bo was an expert.

The fishing net was heavy when it was just retracted, and the lighter the more you went back, but even when it was at the back, Wang Bo had to work hard.

Therefore, he smiled at the old man and said, "There are good results here."

The old man smiled and said, "That's great, it's not worth my time going out so early."

The tough fishing net was pulled up, and there were three fish in total. The big ones were Wang Bo’s forearm length and the small ones were more than twenty centimeters.

These three fish are of the same breed, with slender and round bodies, like shuttles used for weaving cloth.

Seeing only three fish, Wang Bo said in surprise: "I thought there would be ten or eight."

The power of the three fish is beyond his expectations.

The old man smiled and said, "This is normal. They grow in cold water and it takes a lot of time to grow, so their strength is much greater than that of breeding fish." (To be continued.)8
