The Garni Gorge


This place just looks awesome.  I've never seen a mountain side that looked like this, it's just odd to me.  That's probably why it's featured on odditycentral.com... The coincidence is just scary, I know.  The pictures are amazing to look at though.  Have a look see for yourselves...

Much like the Giant’s Causeway, the Garny Gorge is made out of a high number of basalt columns. It’s an absolute must-see if you find yourself in Armenia. It’s a wonderful canyon shaped by the ever-flowing river Goght river. Atop the basalt walls of the gorge the famous 1st century Garni temple can be seen.
