The Giant’s Causeway is an area of about 40,000 basalt columns and is the result of an ancient volcanic eruption. It is located on the northeast coast of Northern Ireland. It is a very important UNESCO World Heritage Site, and a national nature reserve. Many of the columns are hexagonal and some are about 12 metres high. The tops of the columns form stepping stones and visitors can walk over them.
The Giant’s Causeway is a very popular tourist attraction in Northern Ireland; the Causeway Visitors’ Centre has Tourist Information offices, and there is an audio-visual presentation in different languages. There is also a café and a souvenir shop. Half a million tourists visit the Giant’s Causeway every year - it’s a fantastic place to see! 1 Leggi
