美国亚凯迪亚（Acadia）国家公园

Located on the rugged coast of Maine, Acadia National Park encompasses over 47,000 acres of granite-domed mountains, woodlands, lakes and ponds, and ocean shoreline. Such diverse habitats create striking scenery and make the park a haven for wildlife and plants.
Entwined with the natural diversity of Acadia is the story of people. Evidence suggests native people first lived here at least 5,000 years ago. Subsequent centuries brought explorers from far lands, settlers of European descent, and, arising directly from the beauty of the landscape, tourism and preservation.

Attracted by the paintings and written works of the “rusticators,” artists who portrayed the beauty of Mount Desert Island in their works, the affluent of the turn of the century flocked to the area. Though they came in search of social and recreational activities, these early conservationists had much to do with preserving the landscape we know today. George B. Dorr, the park’s first superintendent, came from this social strata. He devoted 43 years of his life, energy, and family fortune to preserving the Acadia landscape. Thanks to the foresight of Dorr and others like him, Acadia became the first national park established east of the Mississippi.

Today the park offers scientific, educational, and recreational activities unparalleled along the east coast. Hike to the top of Cadillac Mountain to enjoy a spectacular sunrise over Frenchman’s Bay or explore some of the quieter, more secluded mountain paths. Bike over 40 miles of the tree-lined carriage roads that wind over hillsides and near glassy lakes. Join a ranger to experience Acadia’s resources first-hand. Or just admire the views and let yourself unwind, knowing you’re taking part in a long-standing tradition.

亚凯迪亚国家公园（Acadia National Park）位于美国东北角缅因州，大西洋沿岸，是由一连串岛屿组成的一个国家公园。公园面积不大(好象是最小的一个国家公园)，开着车3小时左右就可以沿着公园的主岛 - Mount Desert Island转一圈。公园以白浪拍岸，湖山风景俱全以闻名，而缅因州的大龙虾更是全美知名，两只1lb的, 一只1.5lb的，一只2lb的，新鲜得活蹦乱跳，美味得...实在找不到言语形容！

海和山巧妙地结合可以说是Acadia 最大的特点。本来山水之中，水是逊于山的，靠涓涓细流的润泽和腐蚀。而此处的海作为水的本体，却显得气势磅礴，有容乃大。山顶的石头确实有点儿怪异，或光秃秃，或苔藓地衣铺满，植被上和别的山水有很大不同，难怪又被人称为”Barren Mountain”. 从Cadillac Mountain往下开一点，坐在那里等待日落。这好像是我第一次有预谋的看日落，和看日出的心情截然不同！同是等待，后者是一种期盼，一种希望，而前者却是留恋加点儿不舍，”夕阳无限好，只是近黄昏” 哪。老天还真给脸，阴阴郁郁的一天了，在晚上太阳竟然露了个头，然后就匆匆的隐没在厚重的乌云中。夕阳下，晚霞中，大海却显得更加阴霭忧郁。
