Please check out the other pics in this series. Everything I saw was so beautiful.
The beautiful Blyde River Canyon is just an hour and a half from where I am now and so I joined a car load going to visit it. It is sooooo amazing. Check out these pics, it explain it way different than I could.
Here's the wikipedia description:
The Blyde River Canyon is a significant natural feature of South Africa. It is 16 miles (26 kilometers) in length and is, on average, around 2500 feet (800m) deep. The Canyon consists mostly of red sandstone. By some measures it is the third largest canyon in the world, after the Grand Canyon in the United States and the Fish River Canyon in Namibia but this depends heavily on one's definition of a canyon. By any definition it is unquestionably the largest 'green canyon' due to its lush subtropical foliage, and it has some of the deepest precipitious cliffs of any canyon on the planet. Possibly the best view in the whole of the Blyde River Canyon is of the "Three Rondavels", huge, round rocks, thought to be reminiscent of the houses or huts of the indigenous people, known as rondavels.
