77% Informative
Mount Roraima is a plateau with near-vertical sides that sits on the triple border point between Brazil , Venezuela and Guyana .
The mountain towers 9,219 feet ( 2,810 meters ) above the surrounding savanna, jutting out like a giant tabletop.
The Pemon, the local Indigenous people, believe tepuis to be sacred, and the mountain is the stump of a supernatural tree that held all the fruit and vegetables.
