Ten geological wonders of the world

1.shilang

Stone waves are also called troughs. [White] In the mountain crevice of less than 200 square meters, the red sandstone is like a wave, and the wonderful combination of rigidity and softness is amazing, so it is called a stone wave. It is located in the Parias Canyon scenic spot at the junction of Arizona and Utah. The open exploration area of Parias Canyon consists of three parts, namely Nanlangshan, Beilangshan and Parias Canyon Passage. Because of its unique geological structure and colorful stones, it is deeply loved by people at home and abroad and photographers.

2. antelope canyon

Antelope Canyon is one of the world-famous slit canyons, and it is also a famous photographic spot. It is located in the north of Arizona. It is a valley wall composed of upper and lower independent parts. On this rock, you can also see carefully polished textures, which can change into strange colors.

3. Blue hole

Dalan Cave is a limestone cave and the fourth deepest underwater cave in the world. In addition, it was rated as one of the top ten diving spots in the world by world-famous scuba diving experts at 197 1. The deeper the diving, the more complicated the geological structure, which is listed as one of the world historical heritages by UNESCO.

4. Crystal Cave

The giant crystal cave in Mexico is located in the deep underground of Chihuahua Desert in Mexico. It was formed in the geological generation era about 10000 years ago, and the cave depth was 1000 feet. The cave is full of spectacular luminous giant stone pillars, as high as pine trees, all translucent gold and silver. Because there is magma one mile underground, under the constant heating of magma, groundwater containing calcium sulfate began to penetrate the whole cave millions of years ago, thus forming a crystal cave.

5. Eye of the Sahara

Located in Mauritania in the southwest of the Sahara Desert, the Sahara Eye is a spectacular circular landform with a diameter of 30 miles. At first, people thought it was formed by a meteorite falling to the ground, but later geologists thought it was the product of ground uplift and erosion, and the cause of the circle remained a mystery.

6. Blue Lake Cave

Blue Lake Cave is an underground lake in Mato Grosso, Brazil, which was discovered in the 1920s. The Blue Lake Cave is16m deep and consists of stalactites, stalagmites and a beautiful dark blue lake.

The geological features of the blue lagoon are amazing. There are various geological structures in the Blue Lake Cave, but the most impressive one is the Blue Lake.

7. The Giant's Road

Giant's Road is a famous tourist attraction in Northern Ireland, located on the Atlantic coast of Northern Ireland. This causeway consists of tens of thousands of basalt columns of different sizes, stretching for several kilometers, which is magnificent.

8. the gates of hell

The Gate of Hell is located in the middle of Karakum Desert in Turkmenistan. 197 1 year, the current Soviet geologist accidentally discovered an underground cave full of natural gas while drilling. Because it contains three potholes rich in natural gas, it was ignited by people at that time, which made the flame here never stop, thus creating the death gate here.

9.wave rock

Wave rock is not an independent rock, but a series of weathered rocks connecting Haydn rock in the north 100 meters with Homer rock and Camel rock that look like hippopotamus mouths.
