The geology/landscapes of Treasure International Park
Dunes Dunes from Słowiński National Park look almost like an exotic desert. As waves and wind carry sand inland the dunes slowly move. It is also caused not only by the strength of the wind and the humidity of the substratum but also by the air temperature. Low temperatures increase the intensity of the processes.Some dunes are quite high - up to 30 metres. Dunes from the polish park are amazing, but the fact that they’re moving makes it even more interesting.The "moving dunes" are regarded as a curiosity of nature on a European scale. They’re perfect for The Treasure National Park.

Rocks I have chosen the rocks of Prachovské skály (in Protected landscape area Český ráj) and the rock called Pravčická brána (in National park České Švácarsko), because they are quite unique These rocks are made of sandstone and it makes really beautiful creatures For example Pravčická brána (Pravčice Rock) has a shape of gate and when you look through the gate, you’ll see beautiful view of Czech landscape and mountains (it’s been used in Narnia)
Rivers Czech Republic is full of rivers… Especially one Nation Park called Podyjí has his river in the name - Dyje
Dyje has made a beautiful meander valley, full of canyons and valleys, stone seas and forests… It is the least interferenced place like this in Czech Republic
Plains There aren’t any plains in Czech Republic, except plains of Šumava Šumava plains are known for their high height and for their big quantity of moss (it was a border of comunist Czechoslovakia, it didn’t let people come across) These plains are quite similar to English plains, because there rains a lot, so the grass has a similar shape
ALTAMIRA Paleolithic rock art from the north of the peninsula The caves of altamira are located in cantabria, in the sierra de altamira, it is one of the most important caves internationally named patrician of mankind. The style of most of his works is framed in the so-called "Franco-Cantabrian school", characterized by the realism of the figures represented.

The caves of monte castillo The caves of Monte Castillo, located in the Cantabrian town of Puente Viesgo, are home to one of the most important Paleolithic sites in the region. It is a group of caves located next to the River Pas on Mount Castillo, framed at the intersection of different valleys and near the coast. Due to this, it is an area suitable for agriculture, hunting and fishing, which explains the appearance of different prehistoric settlements.

Maninska Gorge Manínska Gorge is a national nature reserve, much sought after attraction in this area is the narrowest canyon in Slovakia. It lies in the Súľov Mountains, near from Považská Bystrica and National park Small Fatra. It is a place of great tourist interest, because of its wild and rare flora and fauna.
Roque Cinchado The biggest The Roque Cinchado is a unique rock formation and is emblematic of the island of Tenerife. It lies within the Teide National Park in the municipality of La Orotava, near the volcano of the same name, in the heart of the island. The Roque Cinchado is one of the largest in the world by altitude, for the entire park totals more than 2000 metres. The Roque Cinchado is located about 1700 meters below the summit of Teide volcano and is a volcanic formation; it belongs to a lineup of large rock formations, remnants of the former summit of the island, known as "Roques GarcĂa." The rock is a famous rock formation, in fact its image appeared on one thousand peseta bank notes, with Teide in the background.
La Tarta del Teide The most beautiful It is an ideal location to enjoy the panoramic views of the sea of ​clouds that during several times of the year usually cover the Orotava Valley, at the foot of the majestic volcanic peak of Teide. It is formed by the different stratum of the soil
La Rosa del Teide The strangest On the road that goes from the Orotava to the Teide National Park, you can see this rock in the shape of a rose. It is incredible how geology has such caprices to give a stone that form. It's worth stopping and looking at it. Also in that small corner there is a grotto that can be lowered with care. A beautiful place to start or end a visit to the Teide National Park.
