On the island of Bohol in the Philippines, there are about 1,700 cone-shaped mountains. They look so perfect that you might think they were made by humans. However, UNESCO says they are created by coral deposition and rainwater erosion.
They get the name ‘chocolate’ when the green leaves turn brown during the dry season. In recent times, efforts have been made to promote sustainable tourism to keep the Chocolate Hills beautiful. These places are one of the strangest places in the world, offering unique and unforgettable experiences for those who visit them.
In the middle of the Atacama Desert in Chile, 46 miles south of Antofagasta, you will find a very peculiar sculpture. ‘The Hand in the Desert’ by Chilean sculptor Mario Irarazabal.
Known for its art about human suffering, this massive sculpture makes you feel lonely, especially in its empty and isolated space. It is a popular place for tourists, but visitors are asked to respect it and not vandalize it, as the problem of graffiti has arisen recently.
The fly geyser looks like something from another planet. It is on private land near the Black Rock Desert in Nevada. It was accidentally created in 1964 when an energy company drilled in geothermal water. Now, the hot water shoots up to five feet high and minerals are formed, causing the cone to grow by a few inches each year.
Bright red and green colors come from special algae that loves heat. You can’t just walk up to the fly geyser; You’ll need to join a guided tour with the Friends of Black Rock-High Rock to see it.
