Giant’s Causeway, County
Antrim, Northern Ireland, UK
Given its otherworldly
appearance, it’s little surprise that this natural treasure is steeped in myth
and legend. So the story goes: a giant named Finn McCool created a path in
order to reach and face up to his archenemy Benandonner, a Scottish giant across
the water – the 40,000 neat, basalt columns are what’s left of his formation.
The tallest of the columns reach about 36 feet (11m), and today they’re one of
Northern Ireland’s most popular tourist attractions.
