An untouched area or place is thought to be beautiful because it is still in its original state and has not been changed or damaged in any way. Ducie is one of the world's last untouched islands, nearly 5,000km from Australia
not influenced or affected; "stewed in its petty provincialism untouched by the brisk debates that stirred the old world"- V L Parrington; "unswayed by personal considerations"
