7 Breathtaking Natural Wonders Located Near Major Cities

Looming large over Hawaii's capital, Diamond Head is a 762-foot-tall volcanic crater that is estimated to be 400,000 to 500,000 years old.

A sacred site to native Hawaiians, Diamond Head was originally known as Lē'ahi. Its Western name was coined by explorers who believed the crater's calcite rocks to be diamonds. Just a short drive from Honolulu, Diamond Head is so close to the city that many people simply walk to it along Waikiki Beach. Once you get there, the 1.6-mile trail to the summit takes roughly two hours and provides breathtaking views of the city, the coastline, and the vast Pacific Ocean.
