Top 5 Natural Wonders You Have to See

There is no doubt that Mother Nature has much to offer. But with so many natural wonders there are to see, the average person probably wouldn't know where to begin. At least once in a lifetime, here are five beautiful natural wonders that everyone should go see, some world known and some more underrated but just as inspirational.

The Great Barrier Reef, Australia
The Great Barrier Reef stretches out an amazing 1,250 miles along the coast of Australia in the Pacific Ocean. It is made up of a series of smaller reefs out of coral, sand, and rock. The entire reef has not been explored yet, but for what has, the beauty is breathtaking.

Big Basin Redwoods State Park, California
With elevations ranging from sea level over 2,000 ft. and climate varying from warm and sunny up high, to damp and foggy down low all in the same day-visitors would be amazed by the contrasting environment inside the park, and don't forget to pack the Pelican case with camera gear so you can take lots of beautiful pictures while you're here. Visitors can hike along the 80 miles of hiking trails while viewing the 18,000 acres of ancient redwood trees.

Mount Everest, Border between Nepal and Tibet
Mount Everest, located between the border of Nepal and Tibet, is a part of the Himalayan Mountains. It is the highest peak in the world and is still getting taller by the year. Due to two plates of the earth's crust still pushing against one another, Mount Everest continues to grow two inches taller each year.

Topsail Hill State Preserve, Florida
Topsail Hill offers vacationers a beautiful beach. This northwest Florida natural wonder offers a three-mile stretch of sugary white sand and is along the Gulf of Mexico. It also offers boardwalks over protected dunes, miles of hiking and biking paths, and is a great spot for people who love to fish.

Big Bend National Park, Texas
One of the last remaining untouched environments in the United States, this natural park draws tourists with its wild-west vistas, stargazing on clean clear nights, and miles of challenging hiking trails. But what really draws visitors is the sheer isolation of 800,000 acres of unmatched sights, sounds, and solitude of this natural wonder.
