Works of Wonder

Yes canyons! There are two similar ones. One in the USA. One in India.
They are located on different longitudes and are almost 16,000 kilometres apart.
Separated by mighty oceans, both are located almost on the same latitudes. Both have been naturally carved out by two mighty rivers and neighbouring winds!
The one in the USA is Colorado’s Grand Canyon. It is a ‘must see’ by any tourist visiting the USA! The one in India has been carved out by the river Krishna! It is very deep and very beautiful with a unique and unparalleled scenic beauty as well.
The main attractions on its shores are the very old and well-respected “Shakti Peeth” called “Srisailam” and an equally famous tiger sanctuary.
Both canyons are located within comfortable driving distance of the two 5th largest cities,
of the respective countries. The one in the USA is within the vicinity of Phoenix.
The one in India is within the vicinity of Hyderabad.
Each has it sown charm with striking similarities.
Each is grander than the other in its own uniqueness.
Each has its own signature value too and common cutting tools: water and wind.
What needs to be noted, is the fact that natural works of wonder such as these two canyons, do bear a stark resemblance to each other although they happen to be separated by thousands of miles from one another.
The rivers responsible for creating them flow on almost the same latitudes.
Now that is no coincidence! The unique gorges carved by the two are hundreds of feet deep!
On visiting both, I am sure you would also question the creator. Like I did. Does the Creator love to replicate too? Replicate – using powerful tools like water and wind. Over long, long durations of time? To carve and create awesome natural wonders, such as these two awesome canyons?
If so….. why?
