The Grand Canyon is a massive gorge carved by the Colorado River in Arizona, USA. It is 277 miles (446 km) long, up to 18 miles (29 km) wide, and over a mile (1.6 km) deep. The rocks in the canyon date back to over 2 billion years ago, and it is home to a unique ecosystem of plants and animals. The longest canyon on Earth, this is a place like no other. The Canyon can offer a panorama view that you would never forget! It is where the Colorado River has carved through hundreds of layers of solid rock. It is an amazing place!
I haven't been there but I would love to go. It's a beautiful and breathtaking place.
Easily the greatest. I hiked into the Grand Canyon once and it was beautiful
I have been here in 2015. It's a beautiful place.
The Great Barrier Reef is the world's largest coral reef system, located off the coast of Queensland, Australia. It stretches over 1,400 miles (2,300 km) and is home to over 1,500 species of fish, 400 types of coral, and many other marine creatures. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is popular for diving and snorkeling. According to most people who have been here, this is the most beautiful place on earth. The GBR is also the largest structure built by organisms on Planet Earth! Sadly it could be gone this century due to tourism and industry.
The Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights is a natural light display that occurs in the high-latitude regions of the Northern Hemisphere. It is caused by the interaction of solar winds with the Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere, resulting in colorful lights dancing across the sky. The best places to see this phenomenon are Alaska, Canada, and northern parts of Europe. Alaska isn't the only place you can see an aurora borealis, the territories in the North of Canada also have them as well as some countries in Europe.
I've never seen these lights before. But I believe they are predominantly in Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Canada and Greenland, not the US.
Get it right
Such a sight to see
Cano Cristales is a river in Colombia, often referred to as the "River of Five Colors" or the "Liquid Rainbow."

Niagara Falls is a group of three waterfalls located on the Niagara River, marking the border between Canada and the United States. The falls include the American Falls, the Horseshoe Falls, and the Bridal Veil Falls, and they are known for their beauty and power.

Pamukkale is a natural site in southwestern Turkey, known for its hot springs and travertine terraces.

It is also considered the "lungs of the Earth" as it produces 20% of the world's oxygen. This the largest rainforest on Planet Earth, home to 20% of Earth's plant and animal species! It is so amazing and beautiful with hundreds of millions of hectares of tropical paradise full of biodiversity! Sadly, it could be gone this century because of farming and industry.
Arguably the most important item to the environnement on this list. Too bad there isn't much left of these forest, because of deforestation. I hope Brazil will wake up and do something to protect this forest.
It hurts to see how atrocity and greed are turning a place full of life into devastation and death.
Shameful human acts!
So important, so beautiful. More effort is needed to save it.
