Ngorongoro Crater
Ngorongoro Crater, often referred to as the "eighth wonder of the world," is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in northern Tanzania. Formed by the collapse of a volcanic caldera millions of years ago, the crater spans approximately 260 square kilometres and is renowned for its breathtaking scenery and exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities. The crater floor is a veritable paradise, teeming with diverse ecosystems that support a high concentration of wildlife, earning it the title of one of Africa's most iconic safari destinations.
The crater's floor is a fertile haven for a diverse array of wildlife, including lions, elephants, buffaloes, leopards, and rhinoceroses, forming what is often referred to as the "Ngorongoro Crater's Big Five." In addition to the Big Five, the crater is home to numerous other species, including cheetahs, hyenas, wildebeests, zebras, and various antelope species.
