Located on the northern coast of County Antrim in Northern Ireland, Giant’s Causeway is a natural phenomenon that has captured the attention and imagination of visitors for centuries. Comprising over 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is steeped in myth and legend.
According to Irish folklore, Giant’s Causeway was created by the giant Finn McCool as a path to Scotland so he could fight another giant. The hexagonal columns are thought to have been formed by ancient volcanic activity millions of years ago.

The sheer scale and precision of Giant’s Causeway serves as a reminder of Earth’s geological history and its ability to create awe-inspiring landscapes that leave us humbled and amazed.
