Preikestolen

Preikestolen or Prekestolen, also known by the English translations of Preacher's Pulpit or Pulpit Rock, is a steep and massive cliff 604 metres above Lysefjorden, opposite the Kjerag plateau in Norway. The top of the cliff is approximately 25 by 25 metres almost flat, and is a famous tourist attraction in Norway.

The cliff overlooks the densely and colorful green valleys of the Ryfylke region. The mountains surrounding the cliff reach heights of up to 843 meters. Some of the hilltops have plains which are interspersed with lakes.

The nearby mountain Kjerag (which reaches the height of 1,110 meters, near the bottom of the Lysefjord) is also a very popular hiking destination, and some actually rather go there due to the increasing popularity Preikestolen has gained, which has led to it becoming more crowded in comparison to Kjerag.

The Great Blue Hole is a large submarine sinkhole off the coast of Belize. It lies near the center of  Lighthouse Reef, a small atoll 70 km from the mainland and Belize City. The hole is circular in shape, over 300 m across and 124 m deep. In the center of the circle depth reaches 145 meters Dark color of circle associated with sudden changes in depth.
