There is a magical desert in Africa
Sparse rain and drought all year round, a barren wasteland
Yet after a spring rain
Countless flowers bloom in competition, showing the most magical power of life
This desert is in Namaqualand in southwestern Africa
Only the strongest and most courageous creatures can survive here
Namaqualand
Located in the remote northwestern corner of South Africa
Home to the world's most extraordinary miracle and most unusual desert
Rainbow-like brilliant flowers bloom toward the sun
Billions of gorgeous flowers cover the desert
Turning this dry desert into the world's largest natural garden
And even more so a paradise for succulents
Although there is only 6 inches of rainfall each year
But as long as there is the nourishment of rain
Miracles will bloom on this barren land
They waited a year, only waiting for these few days, waiting for the sweet rain
Waiting for the miracle of life, in just a few short days they must bloom, set seed, and once again enter the dry climate, repeating the cycle, and some even wither away right after the spring rain.
The plant diversity here is enough to astonish anyone
More than 3000 species of plants
And more than half are found only here
The succulents of Namaqualand are just so strong, even growing in cracks between rocks they must have their own color
When September comes and a hundred flowers bloom, how beautiful it must be
Full of the miracle of life, such thick sedums can only be seen in the wild.
The uninhibited spring grass, singing its own free and easy spirit, blow, blow, my proud indulgence.
The desert is not just one color, even low in the dust flowers can bloom.
How should one praise this beautiful scenery?
As long as there is the nourishment of rain and sunlight, will miracles keep growing endlessly?
Different from our seasons, September is the spring that belongs to Namaqualand
Compared with the grandest sea of flowers, the blooming of Aizoaceae succulents is even more rare and wondrous.
Their numbers are so scarce, yet their colors are more delicate and rich than other flowers.
The pink and tender Conophytum succulents, don't they look like Patrick Star?
This is a color exclusive to the miracle of the desert, we will never know, never count how many beautiful sights are waiting to be explored.
Could anyone think this place is an alien world? Strange succulents, the sun setting in the west, one feels as if only oneself is left alone in the world.
Namaqualand, the dream travel destination for succulent lovers.
Is there still anyone wondering: can such rare succulents be dug up and taken home?
The answer is no, because this belongs to nature, and is not a treasure exclusively ours.
Let them grow slowly on this land, following the alternation of seasons, only to bloom into even more beautiful colors.
If there is a chance, you must go once! See the beautiful scenery that belongs exclusively to Africa, the colors of Namaqualand.
So, what about you?
