5. Gullfoss, Iceland
Points – 7.75
In the beautiful country of Iceland, there are many places to visit, but Gullfoss is one of the most popular ones for the tourists. The Hvita river prepares for the drop by going down a few “steps”. It then plunges to the ground in two stages of 36 and 69 feet, before dropping into a crevice that’s 105 feet deep.
The crevice isn’t quite visible from afar, but once you get closer it’s an impressive sight, especially since it runs perpendicular to the water flow and has a length of 1.5 miles. Which is why it takes the 5th place among the most beautiful waterfalls in the world.
