Islands in a sea of white mist
Kymin Hill的点评
点评：This was our second visit to this hill top oddity; being a small 18th-century round house and a temple, set within nine acres of “pleasure grounds”. Paths though the pleasure grounds start here: heading-off eastwards through dense woodland along uneven rocky, root-strewn and muddy tracks. There is little to see in the way of views as the surrounding landscape is totally obscured by trees. The air here, even after the fall of leaves, felt full of oxygen.
I daresay that if you were to press-on past the initial half mile of paths (that we walked) you would be able to see some fabulous views. The ‘going’ was hard and we were unsure about having the time or energy to walk-on to prove my hypothesis. So, we ducked-out, retracing our steps back to the round house.
What we did see here from the circular path around the round house, was however, very rewarding. There is a viewing platform giving landscape views of the River Wye as it encircles the western side of Monmouth. It was a misty start to the morning as we had set-off from our hotel, but we could see that this was just river-valley-mist.
Mid autumn nights get longer, and temperatures get cooler. The warm River Wye had exchanged some moisture with the cooler air above it. The mist generated was spectacular when viewed from the Kymin as it filled the Wye Valley below. The adjacent hilltops remained clear and sunny, and the high points appeared as if they were islands in a sea of white mist. Wonderful!
Bolstered by the beautiful views, we returned to our car in the NT carpark, via another, possibly final, look at the Naval Temple, and set-off for Ross-on-Wye.

翻译：这是我们第二次参观这个山顶奇观；它是一座 18 世纪的小型圆形房屋和一座寺庙，坐落在九英亩的“游乐场”内。穿过游乐场的路径从这里开始：沿着凹凸不平的岩石、树根遍布和泥泞的小路向东穿过茂密的林地。周围的景观完全被树木遮挡，因此几乎没有什么可看的景色。即使在落叶之后，这里的空气仍然充满氧气。
我敢说，如果你继续走过最初半英里的路径（我们走过的），你会看到一些美妙的景色。“走”很困难，我们不确定是否有时间或精力继续走下去来证明我的假设。所以我们躲开了，沿着原路返回圆形房屋。
然而，我们从圆形房屋周围的环形路径上看到的景色非常值得。有一个观景台，可以欣赏怀河环绕蒙茅斯西侧的风景。我们从酒店出发时，清晨雾气蒙蒙，但我们看得出这只是河谷雾。
仲秋的夜晚越来越长，气温也越来越低。温暖的怀河与上方较冷的空气交换了一些水分。从凯明河上看，雾气弥漫在怀河谷，非常壮观。相邻的山顶依然晴朗，阳光明媚，高点看起来就像是白色雾海中的岛屿。太棒了！
在美景的鼓舞下，我们回到北领地停车场的车里，再次（也可能是最后一次）参观了海军神庙，然后出发前往罗斯。
