Fish River Kanjon/ Fish River Canyon


Fish River Canyon on suuruselt teine ​​kanjon maailmas ja suurim Aafrikas, samuti teine ​​kõige külastatavam turistiatraktsioon Namiibias. See on hiiglaslik kuristik, kokku umbes 160 km pikk, kuni 27 km lai ja kohati peaaegu 550 m sügav.
Fish River on pikim jõgi Namiibias, kuid selle vool on nüüd väike võrreldes tohutu kogusega varasematel aegadel. Vaated kanjonile olid aga vapustavad, eriti enne ja kohe pärast päikeseloojangut.

The Fish River Canyon is the second largest canyon in the world and the largest in Africa, as well as the second most visited tourist attraction in Namibia. It features a gigantic ravine, in total about 160 km long, up to 27 km wide and in places almost 550 m deep.
The Fish River is the longest interior river in Namibia but its flow is now a small trickle compared with the immense volume of water in ages past. The canyon views, however, were amazing, especially before and just after sunset.
