Meet 8 amazing natural arches around the world

The planet we live on is wonderful, with countless natural beauties scattered around the globe that even through photos take us out of the air. Among the many exuberances found here, we have the natural arches. Formations arising from the transformation of scenery due to rain, winds and other actions of nature.

It can also be classified as a natural bridge, if water passes under the formation, both formations are found in several places. Still on the classifications, there is a deep debate about how to measure the arcs, whether from their ends or the starting point of the opening, which makes the task of classifying the larger ones a little more complicated. They can appear in isolated places or in groups, for example in Utah (USA) there is a park with about two thousand of them. :THE
