ACADIA NATIONAL PARK

In every  walk  with  nature  one receives far  more  than  he seeks . Above quote is close to my heart and I can completely relate to it especially after visiting Acadia park.
This park blew me away with it's untouched beauty, tranquillity of nature and wilderness. When I went to this beautiful place, I had not researched or browsed the net for any information about this place. I went there with an open mind and I must say, what a magical experience to be amongst one of the most beautiful place in America. Acadia National Park is a combination of marvellous beauty of mountains, lakes and ocean.
 
I am listing down the places visited in Acadia National Park.
 
Park Loop Road: This road is a one way road that takes us to different scenic locations and coastal views.

 

 
Thunder Hole: A place where during a high tide, wave crashes onto rocks and boulders and makes a thundering noise. Lovely view from the top and a thrilling sound.

 
 
Sand beach: Wow! What a Beach!!  Roaring waves looked like white horses moving up and down the shore. A vast beach, freezing cold water surrounded by stunning scenery is what you see and experience in this place.

 
Jordan pond: A very calm place to walk around the pond and relish the beauty of woods, mountain and lake. There are carriage trails to walk or bike. There are rocks across the crystal clear pond to sit and relax. This is my favourite place in Acadia. Nature at its best and highly recommended for those who visit Acadia.
 
 
 
 
Echo lake: We went to this lake to have lunch. The water is clear, warm and kids enjoyed here. It is a sandy beach with lovely view around. Perfect to spend time with family. 
 
Cadillac Mountain: This is the place where first sunset takes places in US for some time of the year. This is one must see place in Acadia. You just feel like you are on top of the world when you are on top of this mountain. Sunset and sunrise from the summit is awe-inspiring. 
 
Bar Harbour: A town in Maine. It is a charming town, lovely crowd. We went there to have a look at the cruise. 
 
Acadia falls at number one place on my list of most beautiful places in the world.
