Mars It is no longer just another point in the nearby galaxy, since the Perseverance landed last February, the red planet has become a slightly closer place that has given us extraordinary landscapes. But since knowing it does not seem like a short-term possibility yet, the accommodation portal Booking.com has searched its more than 28 million listings for 153.000 destinations and suggested eight places that could well be Mars, saving us the swaying of the ship. And in De Salas We share them with our clients and friends.
The first of the destinations takes us to Karijini National Park, Australia, a place with two billion years of natural history and whose intense red gorges and rock formations have nothing to envy of those projected by our recently discovered neighbor Mars and its landscapes.
San Pedro de Atacama In Chile it is not far behind in terms of rock spectacularity. Volcanoes, geysers, hot springs, deserts, earthy colors, salt flats. If they left us there without knowing how we got there, we would think we were in another place. planet definitely.
Wadi Rum en Jordan, also known as the Valley of the Moon, would make any inhabitant of Mars in case you had them. Impossible formations shaped by time and history merge with a landscape that, from pure desolation, only transmits calm.
Myvatn, Iceland, and almost with saying the country it would be everything. Because Iceland is a wonderful place with indescribable landscapes that makes you feel like you are in the tropics like Costa Rica or in volcanic deserts like Lanzarote. And it is precisely thanks to that versatility that it has its corner of Mars in Myvatn, in the north of the island.
There is no list martian that is worth it without Moab, United States, specifically east of Utah. Dinosaur footprints have even been found, and it is the perfect place to start a route through the red rocks of Arches National Park, for example. It is impressive and takes away the desire to travel to space.
The Namibian desert, series To be exact, it wouldn't be a bad place to shoot a movie about Mars, there would be no need to spend on decorations because the truth is that it leaves one breathless just in images, we cannot imagine what it must be like in reality, we hope that some of the friends and clients of De Salas tell us.
And the last two are very important to us because they are patriotic. The first are the Royal Bardenas, in Navarra, of course. Declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO, it is an indescribable place where the erosion of clay, gypsum and sandstone soils has carved shapes from another galaxy.
And we finish our trip to Mars in the Monegros Desert, Aragon. In the middle of the Ebro valley and with an extraterrestrial geography, it takes us to other galaxies and parallel universes. A wonder within reach, although not now that there are still too many travel restrictions.
En De Salas We do not lose the desire or enthusiasm to travel or see other places and who knows if one day, other worlds. For now, we are satisfied with knowing that Mars It is close and that even here on Earth, we have equally beautiful landscapes.
