“America the Beautiful” is a song that is regarded as the United States’ unofficial national anthem. The lyrics were written by American poet Katherine Lee Bates, who was inspired by the sights she saw on her travels west across the country. If you want to experience a spectacular variety of landscapes in the United States—where nature has been the ultimate engineer—join me for this presentation. We’ll see natural sandstone arches that seem to defy gravity, slot canyons, colourful hot springs and geysers that shoot boiling water high into the air, or a mountain that turned into a lake. At the end, you can check your knowledge of the US geography in a short quiz.
