New Zealand Fiord

New Zealand has beautiful nature. There are many animals, birds, fish, and so on. There are many mountains, rivers, lakes too. I researched about there, and I wanted to know about fiords.

There are many beautiful fiords in New Zealand. Do you know how the fiords are made? Fiords are made by glaciers. It’s a kind of ice. Glaciers are formed on the ground. It’s like an ice river. When glaciers melt and moving very slowly, grounds are scraped away by it. Then a big valley is made. After that seawater flood the valley, and then the beautiful fiords are made.

It usually takes about more ten thousand years. If you have a chance to go to New Zealand, you should watch the excellent view.
