Located in the northwest of China’s Hunan Province, these amazing limestone peaks are covered in green and often shrouded in fog. A cable car takes visitors to Huangxi Village, where there are many trails to enjoy the stunning views of Tianzi (‘Son of Heaven’).
These mountains inspired the floating mountains in the movie ‘Avatar’. In 2022, a new visitor center was opened, which provides interactive exhibitions about the geology and cultural importance of the region.
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.
It is an uninhabited valley 216 miles southeast of Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. Soft sandstone, over the years, eroding by wind and water has created peculiar cliffs or hoodoos that some think resemble goblins. The scenic landscape covers about a mile and is two miles long, and it’s best to explore the marked trails to get close to the bizarre formation.
Also a relatively unknown fact is that you can go on a spectacular canyoning adventure in the Goblins Valley. In recent years, the park has gained popularity due to social media, so visitors are encouraged to plan their trips during off-peak hours to avoid crowds.
