Zeeland
Zeeland is a southwestern province of the Netherlands shaped by its position between the North Sea and the Scheldt estuary. Much of the region consists of islands, peninsulas, polders, dikes, dunes, and tidal waterways, with towns such as Middelburg, Zierikzee, Veere, and Goes providing historic centers within the wider landscape. Zeeland has about 650 kilometers of coastline, and its relationship with water influences settlement, agriculture, transport, and daily life.

Dawes Glacier
Dawes Glacier is a tidewater glacier in Endicott Arm, a deep fjord branching from the waters of southeastern Alaska’s Tracy Arm-Fords Terror Wilderness. The glacier descends from the Coast Mountains toward the head of the fjord, where ice meets seawater at a broad calving face. Towering mountains, steep cliffs, waterfalls, and dense coastal forest surround the fjord, creating a dramatic setting that is best experienced from the water.
Radium Hot Springs
Radium Hot Springs is a small community in southeastern British Columbia, located in the Columbia Valley at the entrance to Kootenay National Park. The village sits between the Purcell and Rocky Mountains, with the Columbia River and wide valley landscapes nearby. It is best known for its mineral hot springs, where naturally heated water emerges from the mountains and is used in the Radium Hot Springs pools.
Iskanderkul Lake
Iskanderkul is a mountain lake in western Tajikistan, set in the Fann Mountains of the Sughd Region. The lake occupies a deep basin surrounded by steep, rocky slopes and high peaks, with sparse vegetation covering much of the surrounding terrain. Its waters are fed by mountain streams and drain through the Iskanderdarya River. The lake is named after Alexander the Great, who is associated with several legends connected to the area.
