The world never stops to surprise us. Although science
can explain almost everything but that doesn't mean there is no room for
mystery. These places keep many scientists searching for answers and the rest
of us flabbergasted by the mysteries the world continues to reveal.
Keep reading to know more about the 7 places we found extremely intriguing.
Superstition
Mountain
This mountain range is located in the East of Phoenix,
Arizona. Along with a name that attracts a lot of eyeballs, there are two
stories that have been on for ages. According to the legends, a German
immigrant Jacob Walts discovered gold mines in the mountains but he never
revealed it to anyone until his deathbed upon which he may or may not have
shared with one person. Also called the Lost Dutchman’s Gold Mine, it has not
been found till date in spite many expeditions and people say the spirit of
those people still haunt the mountain.
It is also believed that the mine is protected by creatures
called Tuar-Tums (“Little people”)
that live below the mountain in caves and tunnels. Some also believe that the entrance
to hell is located in the mountain.

Blood
Falls
The falls are to be found in the breathtakingly beautiful
mountains of Antarctica. The sight of the falls is arresting – blood red
waterfall staining the snow white face of Glacier Taylor. Glaciologist and
Microbiologists concluded that source is a subterranean lake that is rich in
Iron and hence the red colour. What is stranger is, as per recent search there
are microorganisms living 1300ft beneath the ice and are surviving because of
Iron and Sulphur in the water.

Area
51
The secret military base in the Southern Nevada, USA
is known as Area 51. It is believed that the fleet of alien’s flying saucers
and alien bodies are kept here which was captured during the infamous Roswell
UFO Crash in 1947. Although nothing has been proved but is it said that
scientists have examined and researched the aliens and have also succeeded in
setting meetings with other alien life forms. People also speculate that
weather control, secret weapons, time travel, teleportation has also been being
developed in this area.

South
Atlantic Anomaly
The Bermuda Triangle
in Space situated in the Atlantic Ocean, around 300kms off Brazilian coast, is
one of the most dangerous areas of radiations. The SAA is the area where the
band of radiation known as Earth’s Inner Van Allen Belt comes closest to Earth’s
surface but the scientists aren’t sure how or why this occurs. The place
creates havoc with satellites and spacecrafts. The Hubble Telescope is actually
turned off from taking observation while passing through this area as Astronauts
complains of computer crash. NASA satellites are shut down in this region, i.e
while passing over Atlantic between Africa and Brazil. Not just technical
problems, some Astronauts have reported seeing “shooting stars” in their visual
field as they pass through.

The
Bermuda Triangle
The list of most mysterious places is complete
without the mention of this place. For those who are unaware, The Bermuda
Triangle is a triangular area in Atlantic Ocean between Miami, Bermuda and San
Juan. Over the years, it has left us perplexed with disappearance of ships,
planes and people. No one can say what happens here but theories of sea
monsters to alien abduction to weather conditions have been doing rounds with
no conclusion.

Lake
Anjikuni
Not just few people or things, Lake Anjikuni in
Nunavut, Canada took disappearance to next level when the entire village vanished.
In 1930, a trapper named Joe Labelle was searching for shelter and was shocked
to find not even a single living creature. Though food riffles and everything
was intact. Few graves were found open with missing bodies and 6-7 dogs were
found starved even when there was no dearth of food. Some versions of the story
claimed to have seen strange lights above the sea at the time of disappearance
while others include aliens, ghosts and vampires. It is hard to certain what
the actual reason was.

Moguicheng
Moguicheng is a desert in Xinjiang, China. The literal
translation of the name is City of Satan or Devil’s City. While walking through
the city people have heard exceptionally strange noises and occurrences. Visitors
are adamant on their claims that they have heard sound of floating on the breeze,
guitar being plucked, crying of baby or tiger roars. These sounds are
apparently mystifying with no one being able to find the source.
