Die Sinter-Terrassen und heißen Quellen bei dem Ort Mammoth Hot Springs im Yellowstone-Nationalpark wurden 1871 durch eine geologische Expedition entdeckt. Zuvor dürften sie nur einigen Indianer - Völkern bekannt gewesen sein. Heiße Quellen lassen Wasser von ca. 70 Grad Celsius über die Terrassen gleiten. Die hohen Kalk- und Mineralienanteile des Wassers lagern sich in Form von Terrassen ab.
The sinter terraces and hot springs at Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park were discovered by a geological expedition in 1871. Before that, they were probably known only to some Native American peoples. Hot springs let water of about 70 degrees Celsius glide over the terraces. The high lime and mineral content of the water is deposited in the form of terraces.

A going location for a scenic shot of the whole terrace with the mountains behind. Must be early to secure a good spot for that shot. Many tourist go there just for this scenery view.
Richtung Westen: Weit kann das Auge schweifen und den vertrauten Blick über die Hügel und Rebterrassen des Kaiserstuhls bis in die die Rheinebene und hinüber in das benachbarte Elsaß mit den Vogesen genießen.
Noch sind die Grenzen zum so nahen Frankreich (30 km bis ins Elsaß) weitgehend geschlossen (Corona Beschränkunen), jedoch bald werden sie wieder für die Allgemeinheit geöffnet. Ich freue mich darauf.

Walking in the Kaiserstuhl in the Black Forest
The Kaiserstuhl offers inviting wine terraces, themed paths, bike paths and a quality hiking trail around the Kaiserstuhl.
There are many opportunities to take a walk in the region,
including 16 Nature Reserves.
This well-liked path in the image offers a beautiful and familiar view in a westward direction: From the hills and terraced vineyards to the Upper Rhine valley and the Vosges mountains in the nearby Alsace, France.
The lockdown in my region allowed it to take sports like bicycle touring and walking outside.

Many thanks for your kind visit, your faves and awards, dear friends.
Take care everyone.

YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK
Minerva Terrace is the primary feature of the Mammoth Hot Springs Area. It goes through cycles of activity where there may be no water at all to such large travertine deposits that it covers the boardwalk. The park actually installed a moveable boardwalk just in case.
A figure really shows the extent of the rice terraces and the great work that must have been required to carve them into the mountain.
Just as amazing is how well the terraces continue to hold up (over 600 years since they were started) and be useful year after year to this day.

In these hot times, nothing better than having a snack in the shade of an umbrella in the street while you watch the people go by...

A beautiful terrace in an even more beautiful garden in a delightful place we rented for a few days up near Mendocino in California.
Afternoon in soft backlight at Longsheng Rice Terraces, also called the Longji Rice Terraces.
They are located in Longsheng County, about 100 kilometres (62 mi) from Guilin, Guangxi, China.
We were happy to see this landscape just before the harvest, which was postponed for a few days due to a festival.
Danke für deinen Besuch! Thanks for visiting!

Terraces at Ollantaytambo were built to a higher standard than common Inca agricultural terraces; for instance, they have higher walls made of cut stones instead of rough fieldstones. This type of high-prestige terracing is also found in other Inca royal estates such as Chinchero, Pisaq, and Yucay.
The terraces were dug following the natural curves of the landscape. The thickness of the walls stores heat during the day and diffuses it at night. Thanks to this method it has been possible to obtain a different microclimate as one goes down and gets closer to the centre. An average temperature difference of 5°C was observed, whereas the difference is only 0.5°C over comparable height differences at the same location. Due to its sheltered position, each of the terraces represents approximately one thousand metres of altitude under normal growing conditions.

Stretching for some 30 km along the northern shores of Lake Geneva, Lavaux Vineyard Terraces is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
This photo was taken in the vineyard near a small town named Epesses.
В этот день грозы прекращались лишь чтобы начаться с большей силой. Мы мчались на локацию для вечерней съемки, пытаясь обогнать грозу или хотя бы не оставать от нее. Но погода всегда вносит свои коррективы. Проезжая мимо террас, когда до конечной точки оставались считанные километры , выглянуло солнце. Мы фотографировали с рук, стоя под дверцей багажника нашего внедорожника.
Это террасы близ аула Чох, Дагестан
Спасибо, что дочитали и посмотрели
On this day, the thunderstorms stopped only to start with more force. We raced to the location for the evening shoot, trying to overtake the storm, or at least not leave it behind. But the weather always makes its own adjustments. Driving past the terraces, when only a few kilometers remained to the end point, the sun came out. We took pictures hand-held, standing under the tailgate of our SUV.
These are terraces near the village of Chokh, Dagestan
Thanks for reading and looking
This is one of the waterfalls on the Terrace Falls walk in Hazelbrooks Terrace Falls Walk. Taken after some quite substantial rain, this waterfall was certainly pumping!!!
Terrace Falls are located near Lawson and Hazelbrook, small towns approximately 90 kilometers (1.5 hour drive) from Sydney.
Falls are accessible by the short 800 meter walk from the bottom of Terrace Falls Road, or from the other side, Valley Road Hazelbrook. There are now gates on both sides to stop the dickheads that either dump cars or rip up the unsealed fire trail.
The walking track starts approximately half way between these two gated. There are two entry points along the track and it just depends from which Road you access it from.
The track itself is a beautiful example of temperate rainforest with many flowering native mountain plants, fungi, birds and sunning reptiles. Don't forget to look out for the colourful freshwater crustacean, locally known as the yabbie!!!
This walk has come rather rich and lush moss and lichens, not to mention the wonderful tree ferns!
Take your time and scamper up and down rocks, stop, listen and just chill to experience a true Blue Mountains experience!!! You might even get lucky as I did and witness the majestic Lyrebird.
Abandoned after the Spanish conquest, the site of Moray, composed of a series of terraces, was found in 1932, covered with jungle, by Shirppe Johnson's expedition. Currently only one 'amphitheatre' has been restored, but Moray also has two other smaller ones in poorer condition. One of these two smaller ones adjoins the larger one and is, in fact, an integral part of this monumental ensemble

In Central Park, the Bethesda Terrace Arcade is the arched interior walkway that links the Mall to Bethesda Fountain and the Central Park Lake. Created in the 1860’s, the Arcade features a stunning tiled ceiling and was designed by Jacob Wrey Mould.
Sur le côté nord de Victoria Street, une terrasse de niveau supérieur a été construite. Un petit escalier à mi-hauteur de la rue relie l’ancien au nouveau et préserve l’ancien lien entre Grassmarket et Castlehill. La terrasse continuait vers le pont George IV soutenu par une série d’arches qui fournirent plus tard de l’espace pour l’installation des boutiques dans les arcades.
On the north side of Victoria Street an upper level terrace has been constructed. A small staircase halfway up the street connects old with new and preserves the ancient link between Grassmarket and Castlehill. The terrace continued towards the George IV Bridge supported by a series of arches which later provided space for the installation of shops in the arcades.
