TIPS FOR VISITING GIANT’S CAUSEWAY

THE GIANT’S CAUSEWAY IS A FAMOUS NATURAL PLACE IN NORTHERN IRELAND. IT HAS OVER 40,000 STONE COLUMNS MADE BY ANCIENT VOLCANIC ACTIVITY. THE ROCKS HAVE A SPECIAL HEXAGON SHAPE. THEY ARE VERY STRONG AND BEAUTIFUL. SOME PEOPLE SAY A GIANT BUILT IT, WHICH IS WHY IT HAS THIS NAME! YOU MUST WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES BECAUSE THE PATH IS LONG AND ROCKY. YOU SHOULD ALSO BRING A JACKET, AS THE WEATHER CAN CHANGE QUICKLY. YOU MUSTN’T CLIMB ON THE HIGHEST ROCKS – IT CAN BE DANGEROUS. YOU MUST STAY ON THE MARKED TRAILS AND FOLLOW THE GUIDES. YOU SHOULD TAKE PHOTOS, BUT REMEMBER TO ENJOY THE VIEW TOO! YOU MUSTN’T LEAVE RUBBISH ON THE GROUND. KEEP THE PLACE CLEAN. THERE ARE MANY BIRDS AND PLANTS, SO YOU MUST RESPECT THE NATURE AROUND YOU. YOU SHOULD VISIT THE VISITOR CENTRE TO LEARN ABOUT THE HISTORY AND LEGENDS. YOU SHOULD ASK QUESTIONS – THE STAFF ARE FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL.
