Table Mountain: One of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World [South Africa]

Hello, kind readers.

I bring you beautiful images taken during my visit to Cape Town, capital of the Western Cape Province, South Africa. So we will enjoy the wonderful Mediterranean climate at the northern tip of the Cape Peninsula, which is characterized by its steep and steep rocky cliffs with steep, almost vertical slopes... Let's see these beautiful images.

Well friends, we are 1086 meters above sea level at the top of Monte Mesa which belongs to the Monte Mesa National Park; a true natural monument that was declared in November 2011 as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. The thick fog that surrounds this majestic plateau of steep cliffs can be seen from the hillside.

Extreme and wonderful adventure that I enjoyed in the company of my husband Murray, native of this beautiful territory full of natural beauty, history and rebellion to achieve their freedom.

Although you can get there by walking up the steep slope, we prefer to take the cable car and in a few minutes reach the top.

In the precious and large rocks whose physical-chemical composition corresponds to quartzite sandstones which in turn date from the Ordovician period, the second in the time scale of the Paleozoic Era; beautiful green spots are found as a floristic symbol, mainly lichens and fynbos Cape.

Valuable plant species that fulfill the noble function of capturing carbon dioxide (CO₂) to take advantage of it as a nutrient and develop its structure to its fullest, releasing oxygen that is fundamental for humanity and animals.

So no one can underestimate the valuable photosynthesis function of this low-lying shrub vegetation cover.

The extreme hydroclimatic and geophysical factors have taken charge of cracking and carving fabulous grey cliffs that represent a true wonder when combined with the vegetation that hides a certain part of them, while other more naked places attest that solar radiation, thick fog, precipitations, cold, strong winds and ocean saltpeter have been responsible for this eco-environmental elegance.

Several viewpoints to appreciate from the vast Atlantic and Indian oceans and coastline to the beautiful Cape Town, whose fog and cloudiness did not allow a sharp panoramic.

And from this angle with the fascinating viewpoint and cable car lines, I bid farewell until the next delivery.
