8 Places You Probably Never Knew Existed. (A Short Thread )

1. DOOR TO HELL : This is a natural gas field located in Turkmenistan, it is said to have been burning continuously for 44 years since 1971.

I guess it's safe to say those that died before 1971 are in heaven? 😂
2. The stairway to heaven.
These majestic stairs had a top secret purpose when they were built in 1942.

Constructed by the Haiku Radio Station to transmit radio signals to Navy ships across the Pacific.

Even tho, some people risk it, it's actually close to the public.
3. Ever heard of a lake that can turn animals/humans to stone?
Well, that's the ghastly Lake Natron in Northern Tanzania

This lake is extremely alkaline with a PH as high as 10.5, so it would burn the skin of any animal who dares venture into it. Well, except flamingos of course
About 2.5 million lesser flamingoes (a species of flamingoes) use the lake as their regular breeding ground.

They thrive on the cyanobacteria which grow in numbers when the salinity of the lake increases.

They've got tough skins & scales on their which prevents burning.
4. The Psychedelic Salt Mines in Yekaterinburg, Russia: The psychedelic (mind boggling) pattern you see is as a result of the abundant deposit of carnallite on the walls of the cave

The farther you go into the cave, the more you lose all track of time and you always feel thirsty
5. Grand Prismatic Spring: As beautiful as it looks, i won't advise you to go swim in it tho.

Located in the US, this spring warm water is surrounded by rainbow colors and it's said to be deeper than a 10 storey building, 121 feet of hot water!!
6. Zhangye Danxia Landform, China: This is a natural land designated in rainbow colors, it's also called “Mountain of Rainbow”
7. Antelope Canyon, Arizona: Located near Lake Powell, this "slot" canyon is considered sacred by the Navajo.
8. Looking for another reason to visit Italy, then check out the Grotta Palazzese hotel restaurant, an exotic restaurant situated inside a cave in.
