Sandy rocks in Ille-sur-Tet, France (Les Orgues d’Ille-sur-Têt)

Sandy rocks in Ille-sur-Tet, France (Les Orgues d'Ille-sur-Tet)

As you know, the most talented creator in this world is nature itself. Another proof of this are the incredible sandy rocks in the form of giant columns, staring at the sky and resembling the pipes of an organ of enormous size in the vicinity of the small town of Ille-sur-Têt in France, 50 kilometers from the Spanish border. As scientists say (and we have no reason not to trust them!), this structure is not too young, just some 4-5 million years old, but the remaining lifespan for these rocks is quite short – sand columns erode more and more with each rain that passed , and their appearance subtly changes. Perhaps they will last for rest of our lifetime, but better hurry!
