behind the Grand Canyon in the U.S. and Fish River Canyon in Namibia. Also known as the Motlatse Canyon, the Blyde River Canyon could also be classified as the largest “green canyon” in the world, with its lush green subtropical foliage setting it apart from the other largest canyons on the planet.
