探索寧武:中國最大的永不融化的冰洞

In the middle of summer, China's largest ice cave, Ningwu, is still in a frozen state despite the outdoor temperature surpassing 40 degrees Celsius.

盛夏時(shí)節(jié)，盡管室外溫度超過40攝氏度，但中國最大的冰洞寧武仍處于冰凍狀態(tài)。

For a long time, China is famous not only for beautiful landscapes or delicious foods, but also as a place where many strange and unique stories often occur. One of them is Ningwu cave, which is always frozen regardless of how hot the weather is.

長期以來，中國不僅以美麗的風(fēng)景和美味的食物而聞名，而且有很多地方也很著名，許多奇怪和獨(dú)特的故事經(jīng)常發(fā)生。其中一個(gè)是寧武洞，無論天氣多熱，它總是結(jié)著冰。

Located in the mountains of Son Tay province, Ningwu is located at an altitude of 2,300m above sea level and about 100m deep.

寧武位于山西省的山區(qū)，海拔2300米，深100米。

The structure of China's largest ice cave is quite special. The cave is shaped like a bowling tree, underground, deep into the ridge with walls and the bottom of the cave covered with thick ice. It is interesting that even in the middle of summer, the outdoor temperature is over 40 degrees C, but this Ningwu is still in a state of freezing, creating a magical beauty.

中國最大的冰洞的結(jié)構(gòu)很特別。洞穴的形狀像保齡球樹，在地下，深入山脊，洞穴底部覆蓋著厚冰。有趣的是，即使在仲夏，室外的溫度也超過了40攝氏度，而這個(gè)寧武卻仍然處于冰凍的狀態(tài)，創(chuàng)造了一種神奇的美。

According to scientists, Ningwu cave was formed during the ice age, more than 3 million years ago. That's also the reason this freezing cave never melts regardless of the high temperature outdoors. Every day, thousands of visitors here, body heat and flash from the camera are not enough to heat the cave atmosphere.

據(jù)科學(xué)家稱，寧武洞形成于300多萬年前的冰河時(shí)代。這也是為什么即使室外溫度很高，這個(gè)冰洞也不會(huì)融化的原因。每天，成千上萬的游客來到這里，身體的熱量和照相機(jī)的閃光燈都不足以加熱洞穴的空氣。

In addition, the shape of the cave is a trap, allowing cold air to enter through the narrow passageway and sink in the winter. Meanwhile, according to the convection phenomenon, hot air in the ice cave will escape. It can be said that nature has created a perfect balance of all the factors that helped this largest ice cave of China form and survive for centuries.

此外，洞穴的形狀是一個(gè)陷阱，允許冷空氣通過狹窄的通道進(jìn)入，在冬天下沉。同時(shí)，由于對(duì)流現(xiàn)象，冰洞內(nèi)的熱空氣會(huì)逸出?？梢哉f，大自然創(chuàng)造了所有因素的完美平衡，幫助這個(gè)中國最大的冰洞形成并存活了幾個(gè)世紀(jì)。

Every year, many explorers come here to survey and research to explain the strange phenomenon that makes this ice cave become a special and attractive tourist destination in China. Every year, Ningwu welcomes about 1,000 visitors a day and is open from May to October.

每年，許多探險(xiǎn)家來到這里調(diào)查和研究，解釋使這個(gè)冰洞成為一個(gè)特殊的和有吸引力的旅游目的地的奇怪現(xiàn)象。寧武每年5月至10月開放，每天接待約1000名游客。

Looking down from above, this entire giant Chinese ice cave is covered by thousands of giant, vertical icicles. The majestic natural scenery, overwhelming, gives visitors impressive experience, hard to forget.

從上面往下看，整個(gè)中國巨大的冰洞被數(shù)千個(gè)巨大的垂直的冰柱所覆蓋。雄偉的自然風(fēng)光，勢(shì)不可擋，給游客留下深刻的體驗(yàn)，讓人難以忘懷。

Deep inside the largest ice cave in China, you will admire the spectacular natural wonders. The ice cubes glistened under the light, reflecting brilliantly. The four-dimensional space covered by snow and ice combined with colorful lights makes the scene become fanciful and vivid.

在中國最大的冰洞深處，你會(huì)欣賞到壯觀的自然奇觀。這些冰塊在燈光下閃閃發(fā)光，反射得非常明亮。冰雪覆蓋的四維空間，加上五彩繽紛的燈光，使整個(gè)場(chǎng)景充滿幻想和生動(dòng)。

The ice cubes have many sharp angles. Therefore, a wooden path with two handrails has been built to serve the needs of sightseeing as well as ensure safety for visitors. In addition, any act of climbing on ice blocks is prohibited. Entrance fee to visit the cave is 120 yuan.

這些冰塊有許多尖角。因此，為了滿足觀光的需要，也為了確保游客的安全，我們修建了一條有兩個(gè)扶手的木道。此外，禁止在冰上攀爬。參觀這個(gè)山洞的門票是120元。
