Magic forest 4K walking tour

Everybody has a special place, especially as a child. Discover the magic forests of Europe! In this episode we visit #Greece and the enchanting landscape of Karpenisi area at the central mainland. #relaxing #video #Asmr When walking to the #Magic #Forest, everything seems to be different. Time stops and a unique experience begins. It is surrounded by large hills and snow white #mountains, so you are in a small #valley with #river between these hills. After you notice most of the details around you, you begin to feel as if you are in a #fairy #tale. The #scenery in the Magic Forest allows you to pretend that you are in a place where you could actually see an elf or fairy. It is all part of the magic of this place. The surroundings, sense of #adventure, and our #imagination always drew us to this part of the #woods. It made us feel like we were no longer in the real #world. When you step through the #trees, all you can see is green. The whole ground is covered in #grass that is long and bright green. Some rocks are completely covered in soft, fuzzy, #green #moss. The moss makes everything look as soft as cotton. Next, you start to notice the #wildflowers and other plants. The #flowers are pink, purple, white, and many other #colors. Some are as large as your hand. The huge #mushrooms catch your attention next. There are many different kinds. The mushrooms grow all over the place, on tree trunks, on the rocks, and everywhere else possible. Then, you start to notice the #light. It #filters through the outreaching tree branches to the forest floor. It leaves shifting patterns on the floor due to the ever-moving leaves on the branches, alternately making everything either bright or #hidden in shadows. The light gives everything a constantly moving effect, as though nothing is ever standing still. While looking up at the light, you notice that the branches over-head are very close together. They are woven together almost like fabric. The branches form one huge canopy over the top of this magical spot. You begin to hear the #sounds of forest. First, in the #silence, you hear the wind #whispering through the trees. This is also when you notice the slight breeze on your cheeks. The leaves, rustling against each other, create a #calming sound. Then, you begin to hear the sounds in the background. You can hear the cows mooing. You can hear the different pitches and volumes of their voices. It is almost as though you can understand them. Next, you hear the #birds singing in the trees. Some songs are high-pitched and fast-paced, while others are slow and mournful. When you lean back your head and look into the trees, you can see these birds. So, you can hear their #song, which sounds very sad and lonely. You see a rainbow of colors, from red to blue. Then you begin to hear the leaves and grass, on the ground, rustling. This is the sound of all the forest creatures scampering away into their hiding places. However, if you wait a while, without moving, you will begin to hear them rustling around again. If your imagination is working, it sounds as though there are fairies or elves trying to hide from you, instead of the animals that live there. You may even get lucky enough to catch a peek of a rabbit or #deer. Often, however, you find yourself waiting for a mystical being, instead of a real animal. It is still a neat experience to see a wild animal up close, even if you do end up wishing that it would have been an elf or a fairy. While standing in the Magic Forest, several different #aromas surround you. The most distinct is the sweet smell of freshly cut hay. Then, you begin to notice the #earthy #smell coming from the ground. Finally, you can pick out the scent of the wildflowers that are growing all around you. Most of the flowers are sweet smelling, but some have their own unique scent. While #wandering around the magical forest, you may begin to touch things. First, you might feel the tree trunks. They are rough and hard. Then, you may decide to see what the mushrooms feel like. They feel dry and spongy. Next would come the huge rocks; these are smooth, cold, and moist. While exploring the rocks, you may feel the moss that grows thick on them. This moss is very soft and fuzzy. It is also cold and moist.

Εκδρομή στον Υμηττό: πανοραμική θέα και ηλιοβασίλεμα από την Ηλιούπολη - 4K walking tour

#Αθήνα: απεριόριστη μαγευτική θέα και ηλιοβασίλεμα από το όρος Υμηττός στην τοποθεσία #Πανόραμα Ηλιούπολης( #Αστυνομικά), στην νότια ζώνη της Ελληνικής πρωτεύουσας. Μια φανταστική βόλτα στο βουνό όπου κυριαρχούν οι ησυχία και οι ήχοι της φύσης. Η #Ηλιούπολη είναι από τα ομορφότερα #προάστια της Αθήνας! Βρίσκεται δίπλα στο βουνό, απέχει 10 λεπτά από τη #θάλασσα, και προσφέρει εξαιρετική #θέα στην #Ακρόπολη. Η περιοχή έλαβε το όνομα της αρχαίας αιγυπτιακής πόλης Ηλιούπολη (Πι-Ρα το αιγυπτιακό της όνομα, πόλη του Ρα, θεού του ήλιου). Και πραγματικά πρόκειται για μια τοποθεσία με ηλιόλουστο προσανατολισμό και απεριόριστη θέα από τα περισσότερα σημεία. Ενώ το κλίμα της είναι από τα πιο υγιεινά για τον άνθρωπο. Η Ηλιούπολη βρίσκεται στους Β.Δ. πρόποδες του βουνού «#Υμηττός». Ο Υμηττός είναι ένα απλό μακρόστενο βουνό με μήκος 20χλμ. και πλάτος 6χλμ. Από γεωλογική άποψη ανήκει στην Αττικοκυκλαδική ζώνη και τα πετρώματά του περιέχουν ασβεστόλιθο, σχιστόλιθο και μεγάλες μάζες μαρμάρου. Το κυριότερο γνώρισμά του είναι τα πολλά σπήλαια και βάραθρα που έχει. Η φύση είναι ιδιαίτερα φειδωλή μαζί του σε νερά και δάση, αλλά η θέα του μοναδική. Ο Υμηττός ήταν ξακουστός από την αρχαιότητα για το περίφημο μέλι του. Ο Παυσανίας στα «Αττικά» του τον αναφέρει ως το βουνό «όπου οι μέλισσες βρίσκουν την πιο κατάλληλη τροφή». Οι αρχαίοι ονόμαζαν τον Υμηττό "κήπο του Άδωνι, που θεραπεύει κάθε αρρώστια με τα βότανά του και του οποίου οι άνεμοι και τα νερά δίνουν στους Αθηναίους μνήμη και καλλιφωνία". Θαυματουργές θεραπευτικές ιδιότητες απέδιδαν οι παλαιότεροι και στα νερά των πηγών του Υμηττού, μια παράδοση που έχει διατηρηθεί μέχρι των ημερών μας. Από την αρχαιότητα μας έρχεται η παρακάτω παράδοση που αφορά την ευχέρεια λόγου που είχε ο Πλάτωνας: «Ο Πλάτων είχε συνδεθεί στενά με τον Υμηττό, γιατί, σύμφωνα με τον βιογράφο Ολυμπιόδωρο, οι γονείς του τον πήγαιναν εκεί νεογέννητο, για να θυσιάσουν στον Πάνα, στον Απόλλωνα και στις Νύμφες. Ενώ κάποια φορά ο πατέρας του θυσίαζε και το μωρό κοιμόταν μέσα στις κοντινές μύρρινες με το πυκνό φύλλωμα, ένα σμάρι μέλισσες, από αυτές που φτιάχνουν το μέλι του Υμηττού, αφού κάθισαν στα χείλη του, άρχισαν να βομβούν, προμαντεύοντας την ευγλωττία του Πλάτωνα». Τα νότια προάστια της Αθήνας σάς καλούν σε ένα ταξίδι με φόντο γαλάζιο - γιατί εδώ το καλοκαίρι δεν τελειώνει ποτέ. Σε απόσταση αναπνοής από το κέντρο της Αθήνας, το αστικό τοπίο δίνει τη θέση του σε ένα μοναδικό θέρετρο. Ολόκληρη η νότια πλευρά της Αττικής είναι προικισμένη με υπέροχες αμμουδερές παραλίες, βραχώδη κολπάκια, πλούσια φύση που σε συνδυασμό με το ιδανικό κλίμα σάς κάνει να νιώθετε πως βρίσκεστε σε διακοπές. Η βόλτα στα νότια προάστια ξεκινάει από το Φάληρο και φτάνει μέχρι το Σούνιο. Θα συναντήσετε παραθαλάσσιες συνοικίες και οικισμούς που είναι γεμάτοι πειρασμούς για στάσεις: Άλιμος, Γλυφάδα, Βούλα, Βουλιαγμένη, Βάρκιζα, Λαγονήσι, Σαρωνίδα, Ανάβυσσος και άλλοι μικρότεροι που προσφέρονται για βόλτα, ψώνια, και φυσικά, βουτιές. Σε αυτή τη γωνιά της Αθήνας σάς περιμένουν γαλαζοπράσινα νερά, οργανωμένες #παραλίες και ορμίσκοι με βράχια για βουτιές. Παραλίες βραβευμένες με γαλάζιες σημαίες, όπως η Eden Beach στο Μαύρο Λιθάρι, η παραλία της Αναβύσσου, της Βάρκιζας και του Αστέρα Βουλιαγμένης, τα Κοχύλια στο Λαγονήσι και πολλές άλλες, απλώνονται στα πόδια σας. Πεντάστερα θέρετρα με σπα, η Εσπλανάδα δίπλα στο κύμα, φοίνικες, θαλάσσια σπορ, ιστιοπλοΐα ακόμη και γκολφ στη σύγχρονη Λέσχη Γκόλφ στη Γλυφάδα σάς προκαλούν να τα ανακαλύψετε. Ψαράδες που φέρνουν την πιο φρέσκια ψαριά σε ταβέρνες και γκουρμέ εστιατόρια, μπαρ και κλαμπ με άψογο ντιζάιν μοιράζονται μαζί σας τις ωραιότερες εμπειρίες της Αθήνας. Οι πιο πολλές και καλά οργανωμένες μαρίνες της περιοχής βρίσκονται στο Φλοίσβο, στο Φάληρο-ΣΕΦ, στον Άλιμο, στη Γλυφάδα και στη Βουλιαγμένη. Ενώ, μια κοντινή μοναδική εμπειρία εν πλω είναι η διανυκτέρευση αρόδο κάτω ακριβώς από τον ναό του Ποσειδώνα στο Σούνιο, ειδικά όταν έχει φεγγάρι. Στην άκρη της μοναδικής αυτής ακτογραμμής, θα συναντήστε το Σούνιο, όπου θα μπορέσετε να θαυμάσετε το ναό του Ποσειδώνα - από τα σημαντικότερα ιερά του αρχαίου κόσμου και σπουδαιότερα αξιοθέατα της Αθήνας. Η ενέργεια της τοποθεσίας είναι μοναδική και έχει εμπνεύσει μύθους κατά την αρχαιότητα. Από εδώ πήδηξε ο βασιλιάς Αιγαίας, νομίζοντας λανθασμένα ότι έχασε το μοναχογιό του Θησέα από τον φοβερό Μινώταυρο μέσα στον Λαβύρινθο. Μπορείτε να απολαύσετε τη νυχτερινή ζωή της Αθήνας, συγκεντρωμένη εκτός από το κέντρο της και σε αυτή την πλευρά της: στον Άλιμο, στη Γλυφάδα, στη Βουλιαγμένη και τη Βάρκιζα, τα υπέροχα παραλιακά μπαρ γεμίζουν κόσμο, που απολαμβάνει το ποτό του, χορεύει μέχρι το πρωί και δημιουργεί τις καλοκαιρινές του αναμνήσεις. Στην Αθηναϊκή Ριβέρα υπάρχει πάντα η αίσθηση του καλοκαιριού. #αθηναϊκήΡιβιέρα #walkingtour #asmr
