Nature Marvels Are Astonishing

We have our seven wonders of the world, all of them artificial creations. Even nature is also marvelous architect. It has many astonishing wonders which make us awestruck. I say that nature itself is a wonder.

The most common wonder we are able to see is the rainbow. How astonishing does the rainbow look with its seven heavenly colors lined parallel to each other, but when you start running to catch it you never succeed. There are many such wonders in nature and after a long debate on how large the list should be, the great learned people who participated in the debate couldn’t come up with a result. But at present we have 7 natural wonders chosen through an open global poll. This list is organized by New Open World Corporation of Switzerland. Thus selected were the seven wonders of nature below,

  • Grand Canyon of Arizona, US
  • Great Barrier reef near Australia
  • Harbor of Rio de Janeiro
  • Mount Everest of Himalayas
  • The Victoria Falls or Mosi-oa-Tunya of Africa
  • Auroras which are visible only from high southern latitudes in Antarctica, South America or Australasia.
  • ParĂ­cutin of Mexico.
