Pravcicka Brana in the Czech Republic

Pravcicka Brana was a sandstone arch located in the Czech Republic for goodness knows how long. It was a literal natural wonder, and it drew tourists in droves. It was exhilarating to climb on top and take pictures, and that is what thousands did before officials outlawed the practice. Why did they make this harsh move? Well, like so many things in nature, erosion had its effects. Over time, the structure simply became unstable, and therefore, unsafe.

No one wanted to see the next Instagrammer tumble down in a pile of rocks. We understand the ban, but that doesn't mean we aren't sad we can't go up!
