Great Mojave Desert
The Mojave Desert is located in the southwestern United States,The desert occupies most of southern California, southwestern Utah, southern Nevada, and northwestern Arizona. The total area of the desert is more than 35,000 square kilometers. In the northeast, the desert borders the large Tehachapi Mountains, and in the southern part, the San Gabriel and Bernardino Ranges. The boundaries of the ranges are clearly defined there, as they are formed by two geological faults: the San Andreas and the Garlock. The Great Basin is located in the northern part of the desert, and the hotter Sonoran Desert is located in the southern part. It is worth noting that more than 2,000 species of plants can be found in this desert. The Mojave National Park includes the eponymous National Reserve, Joshua Tree National Park, and the lowest and hottest place in North America, Death Valley, which is a national park. In Death Valley, temperatures often reach 50 degrees Celsius in July and August. Zion National Park is located on the border of the desert, Utah, and the Great Basin. The Mojave Desert has a very dry climate, but at the same time, large quantities of alfalfa were grown on its land for a long time. The desert was irrigated with groundwater and the California Aqueduct. In addition, in the Mojave you can find "ghost towns" that were deserted due to the construction of new highways bypassing them.
Tablets of Georgia
The Georgia Guidestones are monuments thathave long been called the American Stonehenge. This name leads to confusion due to the fact that in another part of America there is a landmark with the same name. This monument is located in the state of Georgia, and it is decorated with a long inscription made in eight languages. This inscription includes the ten commandments of life. If you go around the structures, starting from the south clockwise, then first the inscriptions will be located in Russian, Chinese, Arabic and Hebrew, and then Hindi, Swahili, Spanish, English. At the top of the Georgia Tablets you can read inscriptions that are made in four ancient languages: Sanskrit, ancient Egyptian, classical Akkadian and Greek. Six granite slabs of the monument weigh more than 100 tons, while their height is six meters. All the slabs of the monument were exhibited according to astronomical events. To the side of the main monument on the ground lies a stone tablet on which is written about the origin and purpose of the Tablets. The central slab has a hole that allows the polar star to be seen at any time of year. Another hole in the "roof" of the monument is adjusted to the solstice and equinox. Every day, a ray of sunlight penetrates through this hole and exactly at noon indicates the current day of the year on the central slab.
Niagara Falls
This waterfall got its name from the river.Niagara, on which it is located. Niagara Falls is located between the fresh water lakes Erie and Ontario. These are two lakes from the famous five Great Lakes of the United States of America. The waterfall spans two countries, partially located in Canada and in the United States. In the middle, it is divided by Goat Island. Niagara Falls combines three separate waterfalls - Horseshoe Falls, Bridal Veil Falls and American Falls. Niagara Falls is not high, but the volume of water flowing down and its width are impressive. The height of the American Falls is 51 m, and the width is 330 m, the height of the Horseshoe Falls is 49 m, the width is 790 m. Bridal Veil Falls is quite narrow compared to the first two waterfalls, it resembles a wedding dress and is located close to the American Falls. These waterfalls are separated by a small island, which was named Silver. In this case, the main falls are the American Falls and the Horseshoe Falls. After the world-famous Victoria Falls in South Africa, Niagara Falls is the second largest in the world. One fifth of the world's fresh water is concentrated in the four Great Lakes - Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, and Lakes Erie and Superior. It is the waters of these lakes that create Niagara Falls. These lakes are the most visited attractions in the world.
The Golden Gate Bridge
Golden Gate Strait Reconnects the GulfSan Francisco and the Pacific Ocean, and you can cross this body of water via the Golden Gate Bridge. Until recently, this bridge was considered the most grandiose structure. When listing the sights of the United States, this bridge can be put on par with the Statue of Liberty. The bridge received the name Golden Gate back in 1937, when its construction was completed. The length of the Golden Gate is 2737 m, and the width is 27 m. The bridge is made of three parts, while the length of the longest of them is 1280 m. The creators of the structure came up with a really suitable name for it, since this bridge is a truly important "artery" of the city. In the morning, when the entire population of the city is in a hurry somewhere, only wide car lanes in several rows contribute to a successful passage without traffic jams and long waits. According to statistics, about 100 thousand cars pass over the bridge during the day. The bridge was originally painted brick red, but due to high humidity and salty air, its colors begin to fade very quickly. About 40 painters constantly take care of the Golden Gate, because every year thousands of tourists come to the United States to see it.
