導讀:如果你覺得你現在所處的地方冬天十分寒冷,那么到俄羅斯的奧伊米亞康村走一走,你或許會改變看法。
If you think it is cold where you are in winter, then a visit to Oymyakon, a village of Russian, might change your mind.
With the average temperature of January standing at -50℃, it is no wonder the village is the coldest permanently inhabited settlement in the world. Known as the “Pole of Cold”, the coldest temperature recorded in Oymyakon was -71.2℃.
This is the lowest recorded temperature of any permanently inhabited location on Earth and the lowest temperature recorded in the Northern Hemisphere.
Nothing grows there so people eat reindeer meat and horsemeat. A single shop provides the town’s bare necessities and the locals work as reindeer-breeders, hunters and ice-fisherman.
Doctors say the reason the locals don’t suffer from malnutrition is that their animals’ milk contains a lot of micronutrients.
Unsurprisingly, locals are hardened to the weather and unlike in other countries, where a flurry of snow brings things grinding to a halt, Oymyakon’s solitary school only shuts if temperatures fall below -52℃.
Daily problems that come with living in Oymyakon include pen ink freezing, glasses freezing to people’s faces and batteries losing power. Locals are said to leave their cars running all day for fear of not being able to restart them.
Even if there was coverage for mobile phone reception, the phones themselves would not work in such cold conditions.
Travel companies offer tourists the opportunity to visit the village and sample life in the freezing conditions.
如果你覺得你所處的地方冬天十分寒冷,那么到俄羅斯的奧伊米亞康村走一走,你或許會改變看法。
該村莊一月份的平均氣溫達到零下50℃,難怪會成為全球最寒冷的永久居住點。奧伊米亞康村歷史最低氣溫曾達到零下71.2℃,被稱為“地球寒極”。
對于地球上任何一個永久居住點來說,這都是有記錄以來的最低氣溫,也是北半球有記錄以來的最低氣溫。
那里不長莊稼,所以村民們以馴鹿肉和馬肉為食。村子里只有一家商店,出售種類屈指可數的生活必需品。當地人靠養鹿、狩獵和捕魚為生。
醫生表示,當地人之所以沒有營養不良,是因為他們喝的動物奶含有大量微量元素。
當地人能經受住酷寒天氣,這一點不足為奇。和其他國家遇到大雪各種活動暫停不同,奧伊米亞康村唯一的一所學校只有在氣溫低于零下52℃時才停課。
奧伊米亞康村居民因低溫遭遇諸多困擾,比如墨水結冰、玻璃鏡片凍裂、電池耗電等等。汽車發動機必須保持全天候工作,因為人們擔心熄火后可能無法重新發動。
雖然那里可以接收手機信號,但由于天氣極端寒冷,手機根本使用不了。
一些旅行社給游客提供參觀該村莊的機會,讓人們體驗極寒天氣下的生活。
