The Chalk Cliffs are placed in the region of Rugen and they project out of the coastal region in the form of dazzling white tower cliffs.
The Chalk Cliffs in Germany are quite steep and they drop down straight into the sea. The lush green vegetation of the island acts as a sharply contrasting background to the white rocky cliffs.
The Chalk Cliffs of Rugen are located at a distance of fifteen kilometers from the coastal line of the region and rise up to a height of almost one hundred and twenty meters. The turquoise blue sea below the Chalk Cliffs of Germany enhance the interplay of a variety of the rainbow colors on the white surface of the cliffs. In fact, the majestic appeal of the German Chalk Cliffs has been a source of inspiration for many of the 19th century artists as well as writers.
The famous artist by the name of Casper David Friedrich, was among those painters who have tried to portray the magic of the Chalk Cliffs on their canvases.
