Emerald Pool - Dominica

This is my 2nd card from Dominica and as the 1st one, this is also from the Morne Trois Pitons National Park, which was designated a National Park in July 1975 and inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1997.

Emerald Pool is in the extreme north of the park, in the centre of the island. The pool is likely Morne Trois Pitons most photogenic region. If you don't like people ruinning your pictures, avoid the pool on cruise ship days.

It's been featured in several movies and has also been used as a place to be married at.

Morne Trois Pitons - Dominica

Dominica was one of the countries Lídia visited a few weeks ago. This is my 1st card from there and at the same time a card from a new Unesco site, the only one in this country, Morne Trois Pitons National Park. This park is a Unesco WHS since 1997.

Luxuriant natural tropical forest blends with scenic volcanic features of great scientific interest in this national park centred on the 1,342-m-high volcano known as Morne Trois Pitons. With its precipitous slopes and deeply incised valleys, 50 fumaroles, hot springs, three freshwater lakes, a 'boiling lake' and five volcanoes, located on the park's nearly 7,000 ha, together with the richest biodiversity in the Lesser Antilles, Morne Trois Pitons National Park presents a rare combination of natural features of World Heritage value. - in: http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/814
