When we think of deserts, we often imagine a vast expanse of dry, hot, and yellow land that seems to stretch on forever. This holds true for many deserts around the world, including the Sahara.

However, there is one desert that stands out from the rest - the white sand dune. Despite its name, this desert is not white, but rather a unique and striking blend of white and yellow.

Nature is a great artist, and its creativity always surprises us. Under the masterful hands of this artist, the vast expanse of land becomes breathtaking. The white sand dune located in White Sands National Park, USA, is one of the works of natural and pure style. It is called the "White Ocean" and is one of the world's famous natural wonders.

This white dune is often hailed as a snow paradise, but many people wonder why it's white.

This large white dune has caught the attention of many tourists and experts. People are puzzled as to why it is white and covers such a vast area. Some believe that these deserts have been blessed with magical colors. The locals claim that this desert is the "last pure land" on Earth and the "entrance to heaven".

Because of the special nature of this white dune, the United States also established a White Sands National Park here. The white dune attracts tourists from all over the world, and everyone flocks to explore the secrets of this desert.

After studying the dune, geologists found that the sand in it was no different from ordinary deserts. The reason it appears white is that it contains too many gypsum components.

About 100 million years ago, due to the movement of the Earth's crust, the gypsum coast was uplifted into mountains, and the gypsum flowed into the lake formed in this basin and could not flow out. The desert climate then evaporated the lake vigorously. Finally, the crystallized gypsum was blown by the wind, turning into a large, white, romantic dune. Even some animals in here, such as gophers and lizards, have white bodies to adapt to the environment.

The scenery of the white dune is charming. Every sunset and sunrise, it will become very dazzling here. The sun slowly rises from the distant horizon, the morning light gradually sprinkles on this white sand, and a dazzling and holy white light rises around it in an instant. It made everyone intoxicated by this scene and couldn't extricate themselves.

You can camp in addition to playing in this area. As there is no human intervention, you can enjoy the breathtaking view of the starry sky when you look up. On a calm night, you can lie down on the white sandy beach with a few friends and admire the natural beauty. Currently, the surroundings are pitch black, with only the rocks illuminated by the moon, giving off sporadic light. The ambiance feels like living on another planet.
