Tianzi Mountains, China
michaelyamashita.com
These unqiuely tall and thin mountains are so alien that they were used in James Cameron’s “Avatar.” Formed underwater 380 million years ago, the flow destroyed surrounding sandstone, leaving only resilient stone pillars. Some of the columns have reached over 4,000 feet above sea level.

Sentinels of the Arctic, Finland

rootfun.net
This 240-meter-long cave system has been one of Guilin, China’s most popular attractions for over 1200 years.

amusingplanet.comSkaftafell Ice Cave, Iceland
all-that-is-interesting.com
Ice caves are temporary structures that form at the edge of glaciers when flowing water melts a hole into glaciers. The tightly packed ice has very few air bubbles and absorbs all light except for blue, giving the ice its unique color.
amusingplanet.comAntelope Canyon, Arizona, United States
This canyon was formed by millions of years of flowing water that carved out a deep, yet narrow crevice. Since significantly less light makes it down to the deeper depths, the walls often appear to be different colors.
wikipedia.orgBigar Waterfall, Romania
500px.orgThe locals call this waterfall "the miracle from the Minis gorge." The moss formation which the falls travel over is 8 meters tall, creating one of the most beautiful waterfalls in the world.
Sea of Stars, Vaadhoo Island, Maldives

reddit.com
Lake Baikal is the oldest freshwater lake in the world. In the winter, the lake freezes, but the water is so clear that you can see 130 feet below the ice. In March, frost and sun cause cracks in the ice crust, which results in the turquoise ice shards we see at the surface.

One third of the plant life on Socotra Island is found nowhere else on planet Earth. One of the most bizarre forms of life is the dragon blood tree, which resembles an umbrella.
abduzeedo.comZhangye Danxia Landform, Gansu, China
laboiteverte.fr
These colourful rock formations are the result of red sandstone and mineral deposits laid down over 24 million years. Wind and rain then carved amazing shapes into the rock, forming natural pillars, towers, ravines, valleys and waterfalls.

wikipedia.orgCaño Cristales River, Colombia
wikimedia.org
Due to its extensive habitat of fauna and flora, this flowing river appears in yellow, green, blue, black and red as you travel along it. The rocks here are around 1.2 billion years old, and those who visit call it the most beautiful river in the world.
wikipedia.orgPatagonia Marble Caves, Chile
whenonearth.net

atlasobscura.comGiant’s Causeway, Northern Ireland
earthporm.com
Around 50 to 60 million years ago, intense volcanic activity in the area formed a lava plateau. Over time, the lava cooled and fractures created columns that are so perfect, they almost look artificial.
wikipedia.orgFly Geyser, Nevada

gearthblog.comMount Roraima, South America

wikipedia.orgUnderwater River, Cenote Angelita, Mexico
anatoly.pro
Underneath the water of Cenote Angelita is another flowing body of water. The river is full of hydrogen sulfate, which is much heavier than normal salt water. When it sinks to the bottom, it forms a flow of its own.
