【看英文中國郵報學英文】春天來臨，除了各地繁花盛開，位在新北市石門區的老梅石槽也提早鋪上一層綠毯，生機盎然。這項台灣獨有的自然奇景更曾被CNN票選為台灣八大秘境之一。

With spring around the corner, flowers are blooming across Taiwan while Laomei Green Reef, located in the northern part of the country, is also turning green. Located in Shimen District, the attraction was selected as one of the eight wonders of Taiwan by CNN.

每到3-5月，因東北季風減弱，石灰質溝槽上會附滿石蓴、海髮絲等海藻，形成一條條「綠石槽」，總長將近2公里，平均深度50公分，尤其到了4月清明期間更美，吸引攝影師、遊客到此捕捉難得一見的奇景。

Every year, from March to May, after the northeast monsoon weekend, the algae covers the 2-kilometers-long rows of stones with vibrant green. Besides, the algae would fully cover the stones and turn even greener in April, attracting more photographers and tourists to capture the breathtaking scenery.

若是要前往賞景必須注意，石槽相當滑溜，容易摔倒受傷，且避免破壞生態，建議盡量在沙灘處欣賞。建議出發前先查詢石門地區的乾潮時間，避免撲空掃興。

If you plan to visit the green reef, you have to be careful with the slippery algae-covered rocks. It’s better to watch the gorgeous scenery on the nearby beach. Before your visit, don’t forget to check out the ebb and flow schedule!
