Geysers

Geysers are great natural phenomenon.
They are found mostly in New - zealand & in North USA & canada.

Geysers are formed when underground water get close to the lava under the earth core .
The water heat up (above 100 Celsius) & some of then turn into steam instead of water.
The steam go up & they are gathered in pockets where they turn back into water.

when the pockets are full the Geyser burst.
Small Geysers can fill up in a couple of minutes, but the large ones can take days to fill up.
            

The most famous Geyser in the world is the "Old faithful" in the Yellowstone national park in the USA .
It bursts every 1 hour.
