Stunning Landscapes That Look Like Another Planet
10. Mount Roraima: The Lost World
Straddling the borders of Venezuela, Brazil, and Guyana, Mount Roraima is a flat-topped mountain, or tepui, that rises dramatically from the surrounding rainforest. Its sheer cliffs and unique ecosystem inspired Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's novel "The Lost World." The summit is home to rare plant and animal species found nowhere else on Earth, thriving in the isolated, cloud-covered environment. The mountain's otherworldly appearance and the mystery of its hidden summit have captivated explorers and scientists alike. Mount Roraima's distinct geology and biodiversity offer a glimpse into a world that feels untouched by time, evoking the sense of wonder often associated with distant planets.
