Nature really pulled out all the stops with this one! The Organ is a hugely impressive basalt cliff formation that assumes the form of huge church organ pipes. This spectacle is just a short stroll from the famous Giant's Causeway.

The largest instrument there is is probably the organ. In smaller churches it can be as big as a piano and in larger ones as big as a two-story house.
An organ is a large instrument operated by keys that produces its sounds through large pipes. This is why it is sometimes called a pipe organ.
But this organ was created by nature, it's a shame it can't make any sounds, the sound would be supernatural.

The Irish refer to the relic of prehistoric times, which is constantly bathed in waves, as the eighth wonder of the world. Everywhere you can see stony pillars towering up to the meter.
