Our Earth is a very majestic place. Not
only is it grand enough to hold almost seven billion people and strong enough
to hold up to seven continents in the midst of 80% water, it also harbours some
of the most astonishing natural sights known to man: The Seven Natural Wonders
of the World.
Many people go out to seek adventure on
these Wonders and become captivated by their stunning views. Hikers travel to
vistas where they gain the best views of The Grand Canyon in Arizona or
sometimes travel its ridges on the back of a mule.
Some travellers even journey to Mexico to
explore the grounds of Paricutin, the volcano whose birth was first witnessed
by human.
Others travel further down into
South America where the Harbour of Rio De Janeiro lies, the bay eroded by the Atlantic
Ocean. They are explored by many - from the peak of its mountain ranges to the
beaches that lay around it.
On the other side of the world is
Australia, home to another Wonder, the Great Barrier Reef: the world’s largest
coral reef system that is spread across 2,600 kilometres. It’s enjoyed by
travellers snorkelling or scuba diving in its pristine waters.
Then, in the Himalayan mountain range,
behold Mount Everest, signifying the highest point on Earth. Over in Africa,
helicopter and microlite trips are enjoyed by those who want to witness the
world’s largest waterfall, Victoria Falls.
Finally, dancing waves (Aurora Borealis)
can be admired as you approach the magnetic pole.
