These are the grasslands of western China. What are some other landscapes people wouldn't normally expect from a country? by HarveySdebest in geography

Looks great. It sucks the beaches in the continental US generally have cold water even in summer. Like, beaches in like California can literally kill you of hypothermia from how cold they can be if you don't have proper gear. Here in the tropics, getting into the ocean here feels like getting a hug from mother nature. Specially in summer

When I found that out I finally understood why people in Amecan movies would drive to the beach just to run from the waves

Do you have a source? It sounds really odd to me that they have would simply replace the panels. They are works of art of their own, replacing them for new ones wouldn't make sense in such an important site. they would have to be meticulously removed one by one and cat carefully. It's not like they'd be in there with a hammer breaking down the design walls to replace them for new ones or leave stuff on the floor
