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.
Sixty million years ago, a huge volcanic eruption released a mass of molten basalt. It hardens and compresses as it cools, creating cracks that can be seen today.
This World Heritage Site contains an estimated 37,000 polygonal columns, geometrically so perfect that local legend says they were created by a giant. It is a strong contender for one of the strangest places in the world.
On the northern shore of remote Etigran Island, 82 kilometers from the coast of Alaska, there is a strange tourist spot. The jawbone, ribs and spine of the giant whale get stuck to the ground, creating a haunted path.
People think that the site dates back to the 14th or 15th century, but no one is sure if it was a sacred meeting place for local tribes or just a place for mass whale hunting. What we do know is that it is one of the strangest places in the world.
