The Twelve Apostles is a famous natural landmark located along the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. However, it’s interesting to note that the name “Twelve Apostles” is a bit misleading – there were never actually twelve limestone stacks. Originally, there were nine stacks formed by erosion along the coastline. Over time, due to natural processes like erosion and the constant pounding of the waves, some of these limestone formations have collapsed, reducing the number of stacks visible today.
Despite the name not accurately representing the current count, the Twelve Apostles remains one of the most iconic and picturesque attractions in Australia, drawing visitors from all around the world to witness the stunning beauty of these rock formations against the backdrop of the Southern Ocean.
