This article highlights 10 awe-inspiring natural wonders in the UK. It mentions the Cheddar Gorge in Somerset, which is the UK's deepest natural canyon with limestone cliffs and subterranean caverns. The Green Bridge of Wales in Pembrokeshire is a bridge-like rock formation made of carboniferous limestone. The Old Man of Storr on the Isle of Skye is a 55m pinnacle of basalt rock. The Seven Sisters in East Sussex is a stretch of seven white cliffs along the South Downs. Durdle Door in Dorset is a limestone arch on the Jurassic Coast. High Force in County Durham is a powerful waterfall on the River Tees. Winnats Pass in Derbyshire is a valley with sea-creature fossils. Gaping Gill in North Yorkshire is a large cave system. The Needles on the Isle of Wight are chalk stacks with an active lighthouse. Duncansby Stacks in Caithness, Scotland, are sandstone stacks in the North Sea. Each location offers unique natural beauty and opportunities for exploration. [Extracted from the article]
