Rocks from around the world

In the world there are hundreds and thousands of interesting geological formations, among which a special place is occupied by "balancing" rocks or boulders. It may seem that some of them were even established artificially. In the first photo - waltzing around Boulder Colorado Springs (USA, Colorado).





And this is another "American" - 39 meter formation in the National Park Arches National Park in Utah, USA. The height of the boulder is about 17 meters.



And this is a very interesting education - "dancing column" in the Canadian Nova Scotia on the shore of the bay of Saint Mary.



The Brimham Rocks or "stone-idol" in the English North Yorkshire. Huge stones literally float in the air, relying on a tiny boulder (compared to their size). The height of the formation reaches up to 30 meters.
