Koko, USA
From series “Majestic and Spectacular Craters and Crater Lakes”
On the Hawaiian island of Oahu is the majestic Koko crater, which is surrounded by the huge tuffy funnel. The height of the funnel is about 196 meters. It is located in the immediate vicinity of the coast and looks fantastic. The scientists suspect that the crater has formed more than 10,000 years ago. A few years ago the nature reserve was founded around him.
In the crater, the botanical garden was laid, the area of which is about 60 acres. It shows the huge collection of cacti and exotic plants - the typical local flora. Oahu Island is characterized by the very hot and drought climate, so Koko crater is one of the best places on the island to get to know the peculiarities of the local plant.
