点评:Deep in the heart of the Victorian Mallee, about 35 minutes drive from Mildura is this 184 hectare lake. I was making my way home to Victoria and on limited time when I saw it and pulled over to look at it. I was on the phone to my mother when I got out of the car - transferring the call to the mobile phone so I could continue to talk.
I was trying to describe how stunning this lake was, in the end I gave up and told her I would send her a photo!
I walked along the edge of the lake for awhile and when I turned around, behind the children's playground the sky was a hazy swirl of pinks and purples... absolutely stunning. Whilst this would have been preferable over the lake for photography reasons... the lake maintained a smoky, mysterious look.
It is a freshwater lake that was once an ephemeral wetland, it has been topped up since the 1920’s to provide a permanent water supply for a post-war farming scheme in the Millewa district.
Put this on your list of places to visit ... it is quite beautiful.
翻译:这座占地 184 公顷的湖泊位于维多利亚马利 (Victorian Mallee) 的中心深处,距离米尔迪拉 (Mildura) 约 35 分钟车程。当我看到它并停下来看它时,我正赶在有限的时间内返回维多利亚。下车时,我正在给妈妈打电话——把电话转到手机上,这样我就可以继续通话了。
我想形容这个湖有多美,最后我放弃了,告诉她我会发照片给她!
沿着湖边走了一会儿,转身,儿童游乐场后面的天空是一片朦胧的粉色和紫色漩涡……美极了。虽然出于摄影原因,这比湖泊更可取......湖泊保持烟雾弥漫,神秘的外观。
这是一个曾经是短暂湿地的淡水湖,自 1920 年代以来一直被填满,为 Millewa 区的战后农业计划提供永久供水。
把它放在你的旅游清单上……它非常漂亮。
