Cape Stolbchaty

It seems almost impossible to believe that nature itself created the “stone organs” of Cape Stolbchaty, on Kunashir Island. But this indeed the result of volcanic activity at its finest. This natural wonder is formed out of thousands of rock columns that sometimes, under the pressure of the elements come tumbling down, breaking to pieces and forming piles that resemble firewood. If you find the volcanic formations of Cape Stolbchaty interesting, you might want to check out The Giant’s Causeway and Garni Gorge cape_stolbchaty.jpg cape_stolbchaty1.jpg cape_stolbchaty2.jpg cape_stolbchaty3.jpg cape_stolbchaty4.jpg cape_stolbchaty5.jpg cape_stolbchaty6.jpg cape_stolbchaty7.jpg cape_stolbchaty8.jpg cape_stolbchaty9.jpg cape_stolbchaty10.jpg cape_stolbchaty11.jpg
