Generations of vacationers have heard the song of Dubrovnik, the “Pearl of the Adriatic”. When you are bored with the tourists crowding the Old Town, particularly in the peak summer season, choose the national park located only 15 miles offshore. Blanketed in a pine forest, Mljet Island offers activities like cycling, hiking, kayaking(皮划艇) and swimming in the famous saltwater lakes.

Travel 30 miles from the Riviera and you can discover one of France’s last wild areas, a place of great biodiversity and varied landscapes. There’s a red-rock valley, the grass filled with wildflowers, villages located on sheer rock cliffs, etc. Did we mention the prehistoric rock art? A guided hike through the “Valley of Wonders” shows Bronze Age petroglyphs(岩画) carved in stone.

Why go for one volcano when you can explore two? Vatnajökull National Park isn’t just a park. This World Heritage Site is formed by volcanic and glacial(冰川的) activities in southeastern Iceland, and covers 14 percent of the country.

Created in 1932 as Ireland’s first national park, Killarney is a 25,425-acre area of mountains, lakes, and woodlands. It’s a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve because of its diversity of habitat and species. The park is home to Carrauntoohil, the country’s highest mountain at 1,038.6 meters. And the forest, filled with oaks, yews, and lichens, presents Ireland’s native woodland.

Cuyahoga Valley National Park

33, 000 acres of forests wait between Cleveland and Akron, all along the snaking Cuyahoga River. The park will delight you with plenty of outdoor activities suiting every interest, but do not climb over the fenced areas, rocks, or Brandywine Falls.

Yellow and red leaves in fall will catch your eyes, contrasting with this parks’ glassy waters. In the Land of 10, 000 Lakes, there are no roads in the park, so visitors use boats to cross this remote 218, 000-acre park.

9 . I am on holiday here in Switzerland with my parents and I am having a fantastic time.     1     It is the first time I have ever been to the mountains and I love it.     2     My father isn’t very happy though. He isn’t allowed to smoke in the hotel so he has to go outside!

We have been on lots of walks in the mountains but we always go with a guide.     3     You can easily get lost—it’s so remote.

Yesterday we went for a boat trip around the lake but we had to go back to the hotel early.     4     It was fun but a bit frightening.

    5     The worst thing is that I can’t go out at night. Not because my parents won’t let me but because there’s nowhere to go.
