Granite, the majestic rock that has stood the test of time and witnessed countless stories unfold. From the towering Haytor Rocks in Dartmoor National Park, Devon, England to the breathtaking Yosemite Valley in California USA, granite's beauty knows no bounds. In Polkanuggo Quarry, Stithians, Cornwall during 1903-1904, workers tirelessly carved out blocks with precision and skill. The result? Structures that still stand strong today. And speaking of Cornwall, Rough Tor Rocks on Bodmin Moor near Camelford showcase nature's artistry at its finest. But granite isn't just confined to England; it stretches across borders and continents. In Mountsorrel, Swithland, Leicestershire lies Buddon Wood where granite formations create a mesmerizing landscape that captivates all who visit. The Minack Theatre at Porthcurno in Cornwall is a testament to human ingenuity as it stands perched upon rugged granite cliffs overlooking the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. Its stage has witnessed countless performances under starry skies. Across oceans and cultures lies Gal Vihara Rock Temple in Polonnaruwa, Sri Lanka. Here sits a serene Buddha statue in meditation atop a solid granite rock—a symbol of peace and tranquility amidst chaos. Back in Dartmoor National Park stands Hay Tor rocks—majestic sentinels guarding ancient lands steeped in history. Their weathered faces tell tales of centuries gone by while offering panoramic views over rolling hills. And let us not forget Nevada Fall cascading down Half Dome and Liberty Cap within Yosemite National Park's grandeur. Granite cliffs embrace these natural wonders with unwavering strength as they continue to inspire awe among visitors from around the world. From Europe to Asia and beyond, granite leaves an indelible mark on our planet's landscapes—a reminder of nature's resilience and endurance throughout time.
