Paysage industriel de Fray Bentos (Uruguay)
    

Parc national du Gros-Morne

Vidéos UNESCO/NHK sur le patrimoine
Situated on the west coast of the island of Newfoundland, the park provides a rare example of the process of continental drift, where deep ocean crust and the rocks of the earth's mantle lie exposed. More recent glacial action has resulted in some spectacular scenery, with coastal lowland, alpine plateau, fjords, glacial valleys, sheer cliffs, waterfalls and many pristine lakes.
