What excellent documentaries about natural landforms abroad are worth recommending?
At that time, the answer only stayed in books, but now we can learn about the formation of various landforms on the earth by watching documentaries. Today, I recommend five selected geographical and geological documentaries about natural landforms.
1, The Power of the Earth does not directly introduce landforms, but it introduces the evolution process of the Earth in detail, including the formation of various landforms: plate movement, glacier formation, volcanoes, mountains and so on. , but also involves the atmosphere, ice, oceans and volcanoes that play a key role in the earth's boundary. The movement of these four forces has led to the formation of various climates and landforms on the earth.
Among them, the unique landforms and landscapes were shot on the spot, which lasted for three years. The explanation in the film is very vivid, as if not watching a documentary, but listening to an old man telling various geographical phenomena in ordinary language. After reading it, you will have a deeper understanding of the formation of the earth, you will realize the formation of various landforms, and you will feel the nature.

The documentary "The Story of the Earth" is similar to "The Power of the Earth", but the content is different. This documentary pays more attention to the formation of geological landforms, such as how mountains are formed, how continental plates move, and how the seabed is formed. A total of 8 episodes, absolutely let you watch enough.
Of course, there are volcanoes and glaciers, which promote the formation of the earth's landforms. Finally, the urgency of environmental protection is discussed: global warming is getting warmer and glaciers are melting.

3. The rise of the mainland This documentary mainly tells how several major plates of the earth were formed, how strange landforms were formed, and the evolution of climate. It is the most initiator of the formation of continental plate landforms. Including Africa, Australia, America, Eurasia, feel the magic of nature.
In ancient times, the world was actually a whole continent, divided into today's geographical wonders such as oceans, glaciers and mountains. The film also analyzes that the future continental plates may reunite to form a complete continental plate. But this is all in the future. For individuals, watching this documentary can increase a lot of geographical knowledge and have a deeper understanding of the formation of various landforms on the earth.

Compared with the other three films, this documentary is more integrated with human activities. Rivers, glaciers, oceans, deserts, polar regions, tropical rainforests and cities all have human shadows, and even primitive villages and tribes exist, which mainly record how human beings survive in various geomorphic environments in nature.
What is even more shocking in the documentary is the appearance of savages, who are pure, kind and full of wisdom, and will use various tools to catch prey and cooperate in building houses. If you like this kind of documentary, you'd better watch the original BBC. There are many tidbits behind, which are beautiful and shocking.

5. Wild Africa Speaking of Africa, I vaguely remember the Egyptian pyramids, the Great Rift Valley and the Sahara Desert in the geography book. Other than that, I know nothing. This documentary tells the natural history of the formation of the African continent, with six episodes, and discusses the formation of six landforms, including mountains, plains and deserts, coastal lakes and jungles.
In fact, this documentary should be regarded as a documentary about natural animals. It selects creatures of various landforms to shoot and truly records how these wild animals survive in this landform environment. There are not many documentaries in Africa. This documentary is not boring, on the contrary, it is interesting and worth seeing.

The above are five documentaries about topography that I recommend. The first three documentaries are classics, which are not only suitable for adults, but also suitable for high school students to make up their geography knowledge. I especially recommend them!
