Today: Top 10 most beautiful National Parks in the world<\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n

The first National Park was founded in 1872, when US President Ulysses S. Grant signed a pact, establishing Yellowstone National Park in Montana and Wyoming “as a public park or pleasuring-ground for the benefit and enjoyment of the people” and placed it “under exclusive control of the Secretary of the Interior”. The idea quickly spread, and today, there are more than 1,000 national parks in over 100 nations, protecting sites of dazzling natural beauty, geographic wonders, and unique flora and fauna, that are open to the public and not altered by man. Though beauty is in the eye of the beholder, here’s my selection of the world’s most magnificent National Parks (or at leasts those parks that impressed me the most during my extensive travels around the globe).<\/p>\n

10. CANAIMA NATIONAL PARK, VENEZUALA<\/a><\/strong><\/h5>\n

Canaima National Park is the sixth-largest National Park in the world, spread over 3 million hectares in south-eastern Venezuela along the border between Guyana and Brazil. The majority of the park’s surface is covered by table mountains (tepui) which form a fabulous landscape of sheer cliffs and waterfalls. The tepuis are of great geological interest as they represent unique biogeological entities. Canaima is also home to Angels Falls, which is the world\u2019s highest waterfall (979 m or 3211 ft). The falls are named after Jimmy Angel, an American bush pilot and gold-hunting adventurer, who discovered the in 1937. The height of the falls is so great that before getting anywhere near the ground, the water is atomized by the strong winds and turned into mist.<\/p>\n
