Want a trip to discover the natural world? Our travel agency has worked out a list of natural wonders for your travel destinations.
The first wonder we will introduce is the Stone Forest in China, which lies about 80 miles from Kunming. The Stone Forest has gone through 280 million years of formation and finally developed into different shapes, such as plants, animals and human figures. They are all lifelike. These stones are 20 to 50 meters high and look like a forest from a distance. That’s why people call it “Stone Forest”.

Wonders of Nature(2/3)
The second wonder is Iguazu Falls, located on the border between Brazil and Argentina and known as one of the world’s greatest wonders. The falls are 1.7 miles long and range from 197 to 269 feet high. The most impressive part of Iguazu Falls is called “The Devil’s Throat”, a U-shaped rift of 260—300 feet wide and 230—260 feet deep. “I have visited many great waterfalls, but the Iguazu Falls are the most beautiful and powerful waterfalls I’ve ever seen,” one of our travelers said.

The last wonder we’ll introduce to you is the Great Rift Valley which can be seen from space. It is the longest rift in the world with a length of 6,400 kilometers along East Africa. It ranges from 30 to 100 kilometers in width and from 500 feet below sea level to snow-covered mountains in height. The rift is also home to lots of wildlife, such as lions and elephants. “This place is more than just beautiful. It is filled with surprises,” many travelers claimed.
