Beauty of the Mysterious Black Forest
G'day folks,
Welcome to a wonderland.
The huge and
mysterious Black Forest encompasses hundreds of miles and is one of the biggest
forested areas in the world. The Romans
gave it its ominous name because it used to be so thick, no light reached its
floor and walking inside it, you would step into perpetual night.
The black forest is home to mountain ranges,
lakes, waterfalls, streams, and scenery that has broken countless hearts. It is
one of the most beautiful places on earth, dressed in colors of white and green
in the winter, yellow, orange and red in the fall, and every other color in
between. Enjoy these stunning views of this magical place.
In more ancient times, the forest was reputedly so thick
that humans couldn't even get in it, and so dense that no sunlight reached the
forest floor, and it was as dark as night.
The German word for the black forest is Schwarzwald. It is
known for three known features: The amazing scenery, the formidable woods, and
the highlands.
The black forest scenery reminds people of mythological
legends and is said to be haunted by witches, sorcerers, werewolves and many
demons of various shapes and sizes. That said, there are also good dwarves that
try to balance the scales, so if you see one, you're in good hands.
1.3 million people in Germany work somehow with the black
forest, which supplies not only timber but also other helpful resources as
well as being a visitor attraction.
