A Geological Marvel

Giant's Causeway, also known as Clochán an Aifir, is a natural wonder located on the northeast coast of Northern Ireland. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is renowned for its hexagonal basalt columns, formed by volcanic activity around 60 million years ago. The site has been a source of fascination for geologists and tourists alike.
