Four great places to go in the UK

It began as a community looking for ways of life without fossil fuels(化石燃料). The group included gardeners and engineers and its early experiments looked at wind and solar power. Two years later, a visitor centre was opened to make more people know this community’s lifestyle. Today its renewable tech and gardens attract many visitors.

It is a great place for all ages where you can see amazing wildlife native to Britain. It holds an amazing collection of over 200 British animals. With a huge adventure playground for kids, it is good for families. Wildwood Trust offers half-price tickets to those who arrive by public transport.

It’s surprising that the city centre is just a mile away when you walk through the grassy paths there. The place, now alive with birdsong and wild flowers, was once York’s rubbish tip (垃圾场). Now many apple trees grow there. And there’s a popular mini-Stonehenge in the middle, which is made of stones once thrown there.

The Findhorn Foundation has been trying to be a living model for the future since the 1960s. This is an eco-village with an arts centre and publishers; there are also films and plays on offer in the Universal Hall. Being in the Findhorn Foundation reminds you that powerful and positive visions for the future can be realized.

Few places in the world can be as good as Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. This UNESCO World Heritage site has snow-capped mountains and, in its valleys, deep blue lakes. Grizzly bears and mountain lions live in its forests. It is different from most other World Heritage sites due to its location in two countries. This land actually combines two large national parks-Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta, Canada, and Glacier National Park in Montana, United States.

Back in 1931, local Rotary Club members had the idea of uniting the two parks. The Rotarians believed the area could be better protected and enjoyed as one, and their governments agreed. Then, in 1995, UNESCO agreed as well, and the two parks became a single World Heritage site.

For visitors, Waterton-Glacier Park offers many wonderful things to see and do. Have a picnic or go for a hike- or have a picnic on your hike-and be ready to take lots of pictures. On the lakes, take a boat tour, go fishing or simply go for a swim.

Whatever activities you choose, amazing views will surround you. For example, a road tour anywhere in the park will pass through wonderful scenery. Don’t miss the drive westward along the Going-to-the-Sun Road. You will never forget the great views.

A number of small towns lie within Waterton-Glacier Park or close to it. In these places, you can get a bite to eat, buy gifts or find a place to stay. One must-see is the town of Waterton and Prince of Wales Hotel. Camping in the park is a very popular activity. Many campsites are available on a first come, first served basis while some need to be reserved. If you camp, be sure to keep food locked away at night. Otherwise, you may have an unwanted visit from a bear.

Words cannot describe beautiful Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. You have to see it for yourself！
