track in the small Ukrainian town of Kleven (which lies some 350km from

couples. The track, which is known locally as The Tunnel of Love, is
becoming an increasingly common spot for couples, particularly during

side to form an arch. This arch stretches for up to three kilometers and
looks like a green tunnel of trees and couples wishful of a few moments
of romantic solitude are often seen strolling around.

salt flat at 10,582 square kilometers. It is located in the Potosí and
Oruro departments in southwest Bolivia, near the crest of the Andes, and
is at an elevation of 3,656 meters above mean sea level. The Salar was
formed as a result of transformations between several prehistoric lakes.
It is covered by a few meters of salt crust, which has an extraordinary

Republic of Yemen and is considered the jewel of biodiversity in the
Arabian Sea. One of the most striking of Socotra’s plants is the
dragon’s blood tree (Dracaena cinnabari), which is a strange-looking,
umbrella-shaped tree. Its red sap was thought to be the dragon’s blood
of the ancients, sought after as a medicine and a dye, and today used as
paint and varnish. The Dragon’s Blood tree is one of Socotra’s iconic
natural features. These trees grows in droves high up on Diskum plateau

of Svmnafellsjvkull (CORR) in Skaftafell national park, highlights
nature’s beauty. Created by the awesome forces of the Vatnajvkull ice
cap in the south of the volcanic island, the deep blue cave was formed
by the glacier meeting the coastline. The centuries old ice that has
come from the slopes of 6,921 feet tall Vrffajvkull, Iceland’s tallest
active volcano, has compressed all air out of the ice adding to the
texture and colour of the cave.
