An ocean as imagined by Jules Verne in Journey to the Centre of the Earth. A splendid bit of early fantasy fiction. I recommend 'Lost' - the chapter where the narrator gets separated from his Uncle in caverns 70 miles underground.
…fosses, Gulfoss is pretty cool. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gullfoss Images: https://www.google.co.in/searchq=gullfoss&tbm=isch Often when I read about Iceland, it reminds me of the Jules Verne novel "Journey to the Centre of the Earth", which I read as a kid. Good novel.
…his books are so approachable for youth (especially in some translations). He paints such a beautiful picture of a world waiting to be explored, ripe for the taking. (Personally however, I would rank Journey to the Centre of the Earth above 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.)
Ah, Verne. Brings back childhood memories. I consumed the entire Verne that was in my primary school library, maybe 15 novels in total. "The Mysterious Island" and "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" were one of the first books I read in English translations (my mother tongue is Polish), around the age of 13. Good times.
I decided to become an engineer after reading the mysterious island. Although I was somewhat older, probably 10-12. Journey to the centre of the earth was actually the first book that I read when I was probably 7, and I really enjoyed it.
The irony is that one of Jules Verne's best known works is a physically-impossible Journey to the Centre of the Earth, whilst one of Wells' best known works conceives tactical nuclear weapons, radioactive waste on battlefields and MUAD before the structure of the atom was properly understood, and once the neutron was…
儒勒·凡尔纳在《地心游记》中构想出的大海。非常精彩的早期奇幻小说。推荐读读《迷失》这一章——讲述叙述者在地下70英里的洞穴深处与叔叔走散的经历。

……瀑布（foss），黄金瀑布（Gullfoss）就挺壮观的。https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gullfoss 图片：https://www.google.co.in/searchq=gullfoss&tbm=isch 每次读到冰岛，总会让我联想到儒勒·凡尔纳的小说《地心游记》，我小时候读过。很棒的小说。

……他的书对年轻人来说读起来太容易上手了（尤其是在某些翻译版本里）。他描绘的世界太美好了，等待着人们去探索，触手可及。（不过就我个人而言，我觉得《地心游记》要排在《海底两万里》之上。）

哈，凡尔纳。勾起了童年回忆。我把小学图书馆里所有的凡尔纳作品全啃光了，大概有15本。《神秘岛》和《地心游记》是我13岁左右最早读过的几本英文译本（我的母语是波兰语）。美好的时光。

我是读了《神秘岛》之后决定成为一名工程师的。不过当时我稍微大一点，大概10到12岁吧。《地心游记》实际上是我在大概7岁时读的第一本书，我非常喜欢。

具有讽刺意味的是，儒勒·凡尔纳最知名的作品之一是物理上绝无可能的《地心游记》；而威尔斯最知名的作品之一，却在人类尚未真正搞清原子结构、中子刚被……的时候，就构想出了战术核武器、战场放射性尘埃以及 MUAD。
