Mount Roraima is considered to be one of the oldest geological formations on Earth and is around 2 billion years old, with no flora and fauna found anywhere else on Earth.
It has unique flora and fauna as it has grown in complete isolation for centuries. 35% of the plants and animals on Mount Roraima are found nowhere else on Earth. Roraima is truly a lost world.
Mount Roraima is considered the highest peak of the Pakalma Mountains.
It is 2810 meters above sea level and has a peak area of about 31 square kilometers. (This is therefore considered a plateau.)
(A plateau is a plain or plain located at a certain height relative to sea level. Usually higher than 500 meters above sea level)
Located between the countries of Venezuela, Guyana, and Brazil, Mount Roraima is 85% owned by Venezuela, 10% by Guyana, and the remaining 5% by Brazil. A monument has been erected at the meeting point of all three countries.
It is a flat mountain that looks like a large island floating in the sky when viewed from the plains of the Gran Sabana (Great Savannah) of Venezuela.
Mount Roraima, which has a mysterious appearance because it is always covered in mist, has been the focus of indigenous myths and legends for centuries. In the Peman language 'Roroi-ma' means 'big blue-green'. Mount Roraima is known to the indigenous people as "tepiu", which means "house of the gods".
According to the beliefs of the indigenous Peman and Capone tribes of Gran Sabana, there was a mighty tree on Gran Sabana that bore all the fruits and vegetables of the world. A mythical wizard named Makunaima cut it and caused a terrible flood. The flat mountain of Roraima is what remains after the felling of this tree.
There are several waterfalls on mount roraima, which are commonly known as Roraima Falls. Because it rains every day, it forms a waterfall.
