POLAND ~Dunajec River Gorge-Pieniny National Park-UNESCO Tentative List ~

...Nice postcard with many beautiful nature views...a new addition to my "National Parks" collection!!
Thanks a lot Bartosz!!
The Dunajec River runs through the Pieniny Mountains from the northern part of Slovakia into southern Poland, forming part of the border between the two countries. The Dunajec River Gorge is one of the most scenic areas of the river and is currently on a list of tentative UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Located within the Pieniny National Park, the gorge features layers of limestone and dolomite rock, with cliffs rising 300 meters above the river and is understandably one of the most popular tourist attractions in the region.
