This chunk of cosmic dust we live on is full of unexplored wonders, if you know where to look! And probably since the earliest days of our civilization, our ancestors and their offsprings tried to understand all these remarkable phenomena. Some worshipped them as deities, others feared them, but pretty much everyone respected those unique and unusual natural wonders. I can even bet you a taco that many of those special places are still hidden to this day. But still, from what we’ve discovered in the last 10,000 years or so, there are plenty of magical places you can visit today. Best part is, these biomes are scattered pretty much all over the globe, so no matter where you are, you’re probably somewhere near one, and all you have to do is go out exploring!
Now, let’s see those 19 natural wonders you can find right outside your window, if you’re lucky enough.
