Well let's begin with today's post...

In today's post I will be telling you about some mysterious places on this Earth...

Humans have discovered almost all places on this Earth  and we have also started to explore outer space, but wait on this earth only there are many places which are no less than a magical and mystical story so let's look at some of the places...

 

1.Area 51

Area 51 has been claimed to exist in plenty of Hollywood movies including the blockbuster flick Independence Day. It is supposed to be a restricted and secret military base of the US forces. If legends are anything to go by, the Area 51 exists 83 miles north of Nevada. Apparently, the area is said to have a moonlike surface as well. Speculations are rife that this place is used for the development and testing of aircrafts and weapon systems by the US military―claim that the US Government always denied. The place is referred to by many other names including Homey Airport, Groom Lake, Dreamland, Paradise Ranch, Home Base and Watertown and is scrutinised minutely at all times to prohibit any kind of foreign intrusion

2.Bermuda triangle 

The Bermuda Triangle is perhaps the most famous mysterious place in the world. This area of about 500,000 square miles sits in the Atlantic Ocean between the island of Bermuda; Miami, Florida; and San Juan, Puerto Rico. More than 20 planes and 50 ships are said to have mysteriously vanished into thin air or crashed without explanation. Though vessels manage to pass through the area with ease every day, there’s still a lot of mystery behind those unexplained accidents.

3.Crooked forest

This Polish forest lives up to its name, with hundreds of whimsically wonky pine trees. Approximately 400 pines were planted there around 1930 and grew with an almost 90-degree bend at their base. Some believe that a technique or human tool was actually used to make the trees curve this way, while others speculate that a  winter  snowstorm could have given the trees their interesting shape.

4.Door to hell

Almost 50 years ago, a gaping, fiery crater opened up in the desert of northern Turkmenistan. The Darvaza Crater, also known as the Door to Hell, is still burning today, and at night its glow can be seen from miles away. The crater is thought to have been created by a Russian natural gas drilling mishap in which engineers set the area on fire to stop the spread of dangerous gases, unaware of how long the fire would burn.

5.Eternal flame fall

If you follow the route to Shale Creek in New York's Chestnut Ridge Park, you'll find a strange orange-red light glowing behind a waterfall that looks something out of a magical story. This Eternal Flame burning behind the water is fueled by methane gas escaping through cracks in the rock. The water sometimes extinguishes the flame, but visitors often start it up again with a lighter to keep the magic alive.

6.The Great Pyramids of Giza.

The Great Pyramid of Giza has been captivating mankind for thousands of years. The only one of the seven wonders of the ancient world that’s still intact, it continues to be one of the most visited tourist attractions on Earth. Visitors and scholars alike are still baffled by how the 455-foot-tall pyramid (and its two neighbors) were created without modern tools, although a leading theory asserts that they were constructed using wet sand and internal ramps.

7.Magnet hill

Magnetic hills, or gravity hills, are optical illusions in which a road that looks like it’s sloping uphill due to the surrounding landscape is actually sloping downhill, so cars, buses and other vehicles appear to roll uphill in defiance of gravity. Local superstition held that the road led people to heaven, while others believed the hill had a magnetic force that would also interfere with passing aircraft. There are examples of this phenomenon all over the world, but one of the most famous magnetic hills is located near the city of Leh in Ladakh, India.

8.Michigan Triangle

Did you know that Lake Michigan has its very own Bermuda Triangle? Many people associate shipwrecks with the wild waves of the open ocean, but there is a history of sunken ships, plane crashes and disappearances of vessels and entire crews within an area in Lake Michigan created by drawing lines connecting Benton Harbor in Michigan, Manitowoc in Wisconsin and Ludington in Michigan. Supernatural forces are a leading explanation for the frequency of these documented disasters.

9.Pine Gap

Essentially the Area 51 of Australia, Pine Gap is a satellite surveillance base jointly operated by the U.S. and Australian governments in the middle of the Outback. When it was opened in the '70s at the height of the Cold War, the public was told it was a space research facility instead of a spying operation. Thus, it became linked with many conspiracy theories. There are also legends of alien sightings near the base, which is still operational today.

I hope that this list is enough for today...

And Stay Home and Stay Safe... bye...
