Just a handful of pebbles tossed on the ground through the eyes of Google, these miniatures are really massive boulders scattered across a grassy hollow in the Otago countryside.

Featured in "The Lion, the Witch, & the Wardrobe", these strange limestone formations known as Elephant Rocks are a well-known tourist attraction. The massive mounds really do resemble a herd of elephants.

The area is also a favorite of climbers, specifically known as a great place to do some bouldering.
