They found water, but it was thermal and had a temperature of 200ºC. Within a few years, the conduit that this group of men had opened served as an escape route to the water. The carbonate sediments have painted the stone red, leaving a spectacular landscape

#11 Giants Causeway located in Northern Ireland. The Giant’s Causeway is a geological singularity and the undisputed star of the journey along the east coast of County Antrim, the most visited natural enclave in Northern Ireland. This prodigy is made up of about 40,000 basalt columns, most of them hexagonal, that descend in stages to the sea. According to legend, it arose from the fight between two giants, the Irish Finn McCool and the Scotsman Bennandoner, who continually threw rocks at each other, so many that it ended up forming a stone path over the water. The Giant’s Causeway was created during an eruption 55 to 60 million years ago. A large lava flow must have been trapped in a slope in the terrain. The upper part, exposed to the air, cooled faster than the lower part. As they contracted, the polygonal columns were formed, similar to how clay soil cracks when it loses water
