About Fjarargljufur
Fjaðrárgljúfur 是冰岛南部一条长达 2 公里的壮观峡谷,深度可达 100 米。这条蜿蜒的峡谷是大约 9000 年前最后一个冰河时代末期由冰川融水雕刻而成的。沿着边缘的小径可以欣赏到蛇形峡谷及其长满青苔的墙壁和远处的费亚拉河的壮丽景色。该峡谷在贾斯汀·比伯 (Justin Bieber) 的音乐录影带中出现后人气飙升,导致该峡谷暂时关闭以保护脆弱的植被。
📖 History
The canyon was carved by glacial meltwater at the end of the last Ice Age, approximately 9,000 years ago. It gained widespread global attention in 2019 when Justin Bieber filmed his music video 'I'll Show You' here, causing such a surge of visitors that the site was temporarily closed. The canyon walls are thick with moss and the river running at the bottom is crystal clear glacial water.
