If you want to see the alien landscape and see the incredible natural limestone sculptures, then you should go on a trip to the "Nambung" National Park, a desert located near the city of Perth.
The first mention of the Nambung desert dates back to the mid-17th century. Then the Dutch, traveling in these places, found the Swan Valley, which is located behind the desert. They put it on maps. After that, people from all over the world began to come to a strange place to admire the unusual beauty of such a natural phenomenon as pinnacles.
Somehow, in the center of the lush green and wet Swan Valley, a desert was formed. The winds and rains created an incredibly beautiful natural phenomenon there: hundreds of limestone towers of different sizes and shapes. They can be viewed endlessly since each of them is unique: repetitions are simply impossible.
Many scientists believe that the desert and pinnacles resemble the Martian Valley of Cydonia. We have to believe the scientists because only a few have seen Mars with their own eyes. So to see what another planet looks like, you can go to Australia, to the city of Perth.
The study of the desert was started relatively recently. It wasn't until the 1960s that expeditions started coming there to find out what the pinnacles were. It turned out that the basis of natural sculptures is limestone and the remains of shellfish that lived in these places thousands of years ago when the waters of the ocean splashed on the territory of the desert.
But the mechanism of the formation of pinnacles has not yet been fully studied. Whether they were still there when there was water, or whether they appeared after the wind began to erode the limestone from the surface of the earth. The debate is still going on.
But this does not prevent curious people and connoisseurs of beauty to come to this unusual place every year. Nambung National Park receives up to 250 thousand guests every year.
