You must have seen many rivers in your life, but have you ever heard of stone rivers? People can find such rivers in some parts of the world. Among them, the Big Stone River is a very amazing one.
The Big Stone River is the most interesting sight of Taganay National Park in Russia. Different from other rivers, it is full of rocks and stones. People cannot see a drop of water. Interestingly, as people come near the rocky(多岩石的) river, they can hear the sound of running water. Rocks fell down from the mountains slowly and made the river of rocks.
The Big Stone River is about 6 km long and is made up of many small rocky rivers. It cuts through a thick forest like a real river. It is mostly about 200 meters wide, and in some places, it is up to 700 meters wide. Some of the rocks weigh up to 10 tons each and the layer of rocks goes down 6 meters deep.
Scientists believe it is the consequence of the movement of glaciers(冰川) about 10,000 years ago. At that time, ice covered the top of the mountains. As time went by, the ice turned into water. Seeing the amazing river is a great experience. The best way to enjoy this natural wonder is to look down from above. Come and visit it when you come to Russia.
