El Peñol stone in Antioquia, COLOMBIA

El Peñol is this immense rock that is just out from the earth in Guatapé, Antioquia. The people from the surrounding towns believe it was a meteorite that had crashed into the earth. It’s beautiful a beautiful landscape. It has 649 steps from the bottom to the top.

The stairs used to be of wood and but now they’re made of stone. At the top there is a little restaurant.

Any of the views from the top are fantastic. The rock is surrounded by dozens of man-made lakes that were made when a dam was built to create electricity for the area.

Many of the little islands in the area are home to some of the richest people and their beautiful homes with private docks.

Venece

Venece is a tourist city of Italia. In the photo I see that this is a city on the water with buildings, houses, a beautiful church and trees around the city. The city reflects on the water. There are little boats of different colors. The sky is blue and the day is sunny. The most beautiful thing of the photo is the church because is big and it has many entries and it is similar to a castle that the people visit as a tourist place.

Driving Bolivia

Driving in Bolivia is something really frightening and the person that is at a side of this road has to be very courageous and without fear to the heights. The image shows us a great mountain with a very narrow highway; in which the car goes in two senses, with a lot of care since there is not place for mistakes because the car can go to the abyss. Bolivia is located in the central region of South America, it limits the north and the east with Brazil, the southeast with Paraguay, the south with Argentina, the west with Peru and the southwest with Chile.

Niagara falls

The name "Niagara" is original from the word Iroquesa that means " Thunder of water". The original inhabitants of the region were those of Ongiara, an Iroquesean tribe called the neutral ones for the French Conquerors, who found in them help as mediators of disputes with other tribes. Niagara falls are a small group of big cascades placed in Niagara river to the east of North America, on the border of the United States and Canada. Since they were discovered by the European settlers they have became very popular, not only for its beauty but also for being a source of energy and a challenging environmental project. It is a place of tourism shared by the cities of Niagara Falls (New York) and Niagara Falls( Ontario). It is wonderful to appreciate the beauty and nobility of Niagara Falls, not only for being a potential source of energy but also for the agreeable feeling that the appreciation of its scenery brings with just a photography. Also for being a natural marvel created by God; that not only is admired by its beauty but that has also been taken to produce hydraulic energy.
