Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park
The Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park is a national park located in Melaky Region, Madagascar. The national park centers on two geological formations: the ''Great Tsingy'' and the ''Little Tsingy''. Together with the adjacent Tsingy de Bemaraha Strict Nature Reserve, the National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. ==Background==
The ''Tsingys'' are karstic plateaus in which groundwater has undercut the elevated uplands, and has gouged caverns and fissures into the limestone. Because of local conditions, the erosion is patterned vertically as well as horizontally. In several regions on western Madagascar, centering on this National Park and adjacent Nature Reserve, the superposition of vertical and horizontal erosion patterns has created dramatic "forests" of limestone needles.〔 The word ''tsingy'' is indigenous to the Malagasy language as a description of the karst badlands of Madagascar. The word can be translated into English as ''where one cannot walk barefoot''.〔
