Tasmania is exceptionally beautiful in summer.
Today, I would like to introduce you to a niche secret place, an island within an island-the natural island of Maria.
Maria Island
Maria Island is located east of Tasmania and covers an area of about 115.5 square kilometers. In order to protect its natural ecology, the Australian government designated the whole island and adjacent waters as Maria Island National Park.
On the islandWithout permanent residents, you can experience the pure wild ecology here and feel the natural charm of returning to the original.
Painted Cliff is located at the end of a beach on Maria Island. The gorgeous patterns on sandstone are the traces of iron oxide left by groundwater after penetrating into porous sandstone.
These regular patterns of red, yellow and orange bands and rings are formed by layers, fractures and joints inside sandstone.
In addition to the colorful patterns, the erosion of sea salt particles also gives the rock a beautiful honeycomb appearance. The continuous action of sea water continues to erode the cliff face, giving its bottom a unique appearance like being cut.
