Unseen Wonders of The World | Hidden Places That Exist

Sometimes, the earth hides such mysteries that no one can guess. Even after being inscribed in the maps, some places seem to be a part of another world. Neither fully seen, nor fully understood. Somewhere hidden in the stones, silence speaks. Somewhere floating in the air, an invisible umbrella seems to point to an unknown location. Science has tried a lot to solve these mysteries. But the more answers we got, the more new questions arose. This is the same earth, but as soon as you step on these places, something changes. Time, direction, feeling, everything. So let's go on a journey without any imagination, removing the layers of truth, where every step is a puzzle and every view is an unanswered question. 1. Mont Saint-Michel Mont Saint-Michel, a medieval castle floating in the sea, a mysterious island located on the Normandy coast of France, Mont Saint-Michel looks like a dream floating in the waves of the sea. When a storm comes, it completely cuts off from the sea and turns into a floating castle. And when the waves move backwards, a rod of stone rises, which connects it to the earth again. The history of this island dates back to the 8th century, when Saint-Michel, a heavenly messenger, ordered Bishop Aubert to build a holy mausoleum here. After this, the construction of the mausoleum continued for hundreds of years. And what was built is still considered one of the most unique and lasting buildings in the world. The church above, the sound of the bees in the middle and the village below, this whole structure is a symbol of balance between life, religion and nature. During the wars, this place became a prison and a jail at the same time. But its spirit never broke. Even today, there is no entry of modern vehicles here. Passengers have to walk from the narrow streets to reach the top, from where the sea and the sky are seen together. In the evening, when the sound of the bells resounds in the sea air, this place seems to be pulling towards another era. An era where faith, stone and the sea come together to stop time. The bridge between the earth and the soul. In the mountains of the southwestern Guizhou province of China, there is a mysterious small pond surrounded by clouds. This mountain is not only famous for its height and beauty, but also for its spiritual abode, which has been called the door between the earth and heaven for centuries. Located at an altitude of about 7,500 feet from the bottom of the sea, this place is so different that reaching here is no less than a test. But whoever completes this journey, for him this mountain is not just a pile of stones, but becomes the beginning of the soul. The most amazing thing about Fanjing Shan is that there are two temples on its top, the Hongyun Temple and the Chengfou Temple, which are built on two different rocks and are joined by a very steep step like a Sankari Bridge. This bridge passes through a deep ravine below, from where only the boundless ocean of clouds can be seen. Many times, strong winds shake this bridge and at that moment the travelers feel as if they are entering another world beyond the earth. It is said that the person who dreams of this mountain for three consecutive nights, is called here for spiritual awakening. This is such a belief that the locals believe to be true. The name of this mountain has been taken from the fanjing zing text of Buddhism, which means the land of the wise. That is, the place where the soul gets true peace. It is believed that Buddha's meditation place was here and even today, the Bhikshus come here and meditate for years. In the morning, when the seeds of the clouds, the rays of the sun fall on the peaks of the temples, the whole mountain turns into a golden light. The sound of the bells echoes from every direction and such a silence fills the environment, which cannot be explained in words, but only by experience. This place is very unique from a natural point of view. Many plants and animals found here are not found anywhere else on earth. According to scientists, this mountain is hundreds of thousands of years old and the early structures of the earth can be seen in the rocks here. But the locals say that this mountain is alive, it recognizes the intentions of the people and can only reach the one who has truth and patience in his mind. When the sea of clouds is visible from the peak of the fanjing zing, then time, fear and existence are all gone. There is no sound of the modern world, nor the smell of technology, only the air, stones and that unspeakable peace, which is impossible to find anywhere else. This is the reason why this mountain has been made a mystery even after centuries. No one comes here just to see, but to find himself. Because the fanjing zing is not just a mountain, but it is the point where the earth ends and the soul begins. In the middle of Italy, in the depths of the Tiber valley, there is a village that is like hanging in the air. This village looks like a fairy tale, but its reality is much more mysterious and delicate than that. It is called the dying city, because it is slowly losing its shape. The soft volcanic rock on which it is settled, it is being eroded every year by erosion and erosion. Still, this village has been standing still for centuries, as if it has made a compromise with time. There is no vehicle to reach this ancient village. There is only a thin bridge, about 1000 feet long, which goes over a deep valley. While passing through this bridge, the noise of the air and the sound of the waves both give a strange experience. After reaching here, time seems to stop. The rocky streets, half-abandoned houses, and the moss on the walls, all tell the story of an ancient era. The local population of the village is now less than 20, but thousands of tourists come here every year, as if to see a living monument. According to the local historians, this city was once a center of prosperous civilization. But centuries ago, an earthquake swallowed a large part of it. What is left is today's Shivita, the last breath of history, a city. The foundation of the old houses here is believed to be 2,500 years old, and some of them are still standing in the same form. When the sun rises and the fog spreads all around, the whole village feels as if it is floating in the air. This view has made it one of the most mysterious settlements in the world. The people of this village still maintain their traditions and Christian beliefs in the same way as they did centuries ago. In the village, electricity and modern technology are limited, which makes it even more mysterious. Every stone, every wall, every door here seems to bear witness to the past. Locals say that when the wind is strong at night, you can hear someone speaking from the old houses. It is as if this village is telling its own story. Shivita di Banyoreggio is not just an old village, but it is a symbol of that Jijivisha that keeps life going even in the midst of destruction. It shows that no one wins in the battle between man and nature, only time wins. And perhaps this is its real beauty. Even as it slowly dies, it reminds the world that some things become immortal even after death. Hidden in the stones is a secret kingdom. In the southern part of Georgia, there is a huge mountain on the banks of the Mthakvari River, which hides Vardhajiya. A city of such stones that seems to be born in the lap of the earth. From the outside, it looks like just a mountain, but when you come close, you realize that it is actually a complex, land-based kingdom, which was completely carved by the hands of humans. In the 12th century, during the reign of Queen Tamar, it was built. It is believed that it was not only built for religious practice, but also for the purpose of hiding from enemies and for security. There are more than 600 rooms in this Mathnuma Nagar. There were rooms for residence, huts for beggars, warehouses, schools, and even caves for wine storage. The most amazing thing is that it is spread 1,600 feet inside the wall of the entire city of stones and there are dozens of floors in it. In that era, when there was no existence of modern tools, people cut this mountain with only hammers and chisels and created a living city in it. This architectural skill still amazes experts today. The walls inside the Vardhajiya still have pictures and paintings of the 12th century. Queen Tamar's religious rituals and daily life have been depicted in these pictures. The natural colors used in them did not fade over time, which has made this place not only a spiritual place, but also a living museum of art. Centuries ago, a terrible earthquake destroyed the next part of the mountain and this incident revealed the mystery of this land. What was completely hidden earlier suddenly appeared in front of the world, as if the earth itself had opened its chest and revealed the mystery of its interior. The four-sided dry, deep-colored mountains and barren valleys of this region make Vardhajiya even more amazing. When the sun sets, the dim light makes you feel as if an invisible city is communicating with the darkness. According to local stories, there are still some Bhikshus living here who worship according to centuries-old rules. They meditate in these caves, light lamps and live in the same silence as the souls of the people here. Vardhajiya is not just a historical place, but a living symbol of how humans have maintained their faith and existence even in the most difficult circumstances. As soon as you step here, it feels as if time has come back. Where the stones speak, the air is fragrant and the breaths of the past are trapped in every wall. This math reminds us that civilizations do not die, they just turn into stones so that the coming ages can read them and understand how deep and mysterious humans were. The magical world of the shining creatures in the darkness is located in the northern island of New Zealand, Vetomogloborm caves. It is such a place inside the earth where there is no meaning of night and day. There is no source of light here, nor is there a sun or a lamp, but there are thousands of living beings who create light themselves. It is such a cave where darkness shines and silence speaks. As soon as a person enters these caves, he feels a deep silence and coolness. A few steps later, countless points of blue light start shimmering on the upper roof, as if the sky has turned upside down and countless stars have taken their place below the earth. These caves were discovered by a local Maori chief and a British explorer He saw that the walls of the cave were shining with a magical light. Later it was found that this light does not come from an insect of fire, but from a special type of insect, the Larvae of Arachnocampaluminosa. These small creatures use their shine to attract the prey. From the roof of the cave, they hang magnificent silk threads in which small insects become their food. This whole scene is so fascinating and scary that the viewer does not understand whether it is beauty or a live trap. The environment here is so peaceful that even the sound of a drop of water echoes for several feet. When the tourists sit in the boats and slowly move forward inside these caves, there is only darkness and a shining sky all around. Some kind of noise or light is prohibited here because even a slight disturbance forces these creatures to turn off their light. It is said that when there is a loud noise inside the cave, suddenly the entire web of stars is extinguished and for a few seconds the world becomes blind as if nature has stopped its breath. According to the local legend, these shining insects were created by nature to guide the souls. It is believed that when a person sits here in a very deep silence and looks up at these lights, he sees the forgotten memories of his life, as if this place is a window to peep through the curtains of time. Scientists call it only Jaivdeepti, but for those who come here, it becomes a spiritual experience. Flooding inside the cave, the cold drops of water make this experience even deeper. The noise of the outside world is not able to enter here. This place shows that there is a world inside the earth where nature has completely hidden its art in darkness. Vitomoglovarum caves. It reminds us that the existence of beauty is not always in the light. Sometimes it shines even in the dark. You just have to look at it with the soul, Fingal's Cave. Fingal's Cave is a cave located in Staffa Dweep on the west coast of Scotland that looks like it has come from another world. This cave is neither man-made nor a remnant of a mysterious civilization. Rather, it is a natural phenomenon created by the fiery breaths of the earth. Millions of years ago, when the lava flowed and cooled, it left behind a world of rocky stones so perfect that at first glance it seems to be the work of an established expert. Every pillar is straight, and every corner is square. It is as if nature has given itself the rule of geometry. This cave is not only worth seeing, it is also worth hearing. When the waves collide with the walls of the cave, it sounds like the organ of a large church. That is why it is called a natural cathedral. The environment inside is dark, but the light that falls on the sea water gives it a blue and silver feel. There is only one way to reach inside the cave, that too when the sea is calm. This path is not always safe because at one moment the waves rise and give the feeling of the whole world being swallowed up. According to local Celtic folklore, this cave was the residence of the great warrior Fingal. He had once built a bridge under the sea that connected Scotland with Ireland. Some people believe that the same bridge goes ahead and meets the famous giant scourge of Ireland which is made of exactly the same kind of rocks. Is this just a coincidence or is it a mysterious sign? Science says that both the places were made of the same volcanic flow, but the Celts consider it to be an incomplete creation of two demon brothers. The internal shape of the cave is approximately 227 feet long and 66 feet high and as soon as you go inside, the temperature of the air suddenly drops. The smell of sea salt and the rhythm of the waves makes you experience an unknown kind of music. Many musicians took inspiration from here. When the German musician Mendelssohn heard the music here, he composed a famous tune called Hybrid Overture which is still considered to be a symbol of this cave. Poets, painters and travellers call it a living poem because with every wave, this cave creates new music. Fingal's Cave is not only amazing from an astronomical point of view, but it is also a symbol of the boundary where natural art is formed. When the boats stop in its shadow and the waves collide with the walls, it seems as if time has stopped and the earth is singing a lullaby from its depths. Every person standing here feels that perhaps the most mysterious music in the universe must have started from here where lava turned into a stone and the stone started singing. The living tree of life standing on the land of Medagascar seems to have come out of a fairy tale. Locals call this tree the tree of life because it not only stores water in itself but is also the basis of the whole ecosystem. Its height is up to 100 feet and the thickness of the stem is so large that hundreds of gallons of water can be stored in it. When the surrounding land dries up and the rivers also disappear, then this tree holds the moisture of the earth. Locals use its fruit, bark and leaves as medicine, food and shelter. It is said that the Baobab tree seems to have grown upside down as if its roots are in the sky and the branches are on the ground. Due to its strange shape, it is famous for many miracles. Some believe that the gods gave it an upside down shape so that it could not touch the sky. But scientists say that this shape is an example of the most amazing adaptability of nature which has kept it alive for thousands of years. The age of this tree can be more than 5000 years and some old trees are still standing there where humans have not even made a wheel yet. In the evening, when the rays of the sun shine behind its thick branches, the whole view looks like an ancient symbol. Silence, red sky all around and this huge tree standing in the middle seems to have the power to stop the flow of time. Travelers say that standing under it and listening to the sound of the wind feels like talking to an unknown mystery. Some people consider it sacred and believe that the souls of the ancestors live in it. When it rains, the frozen water in it saves the lives of the nearby creatures and plants. In dry areas, this tree gives life like a fake. Its skin is used to make ropes, clothes and medicines. This is why it is not just a tree but a protector of the silence of civilization. Scientists call it a living treasure of the situation while the locals consider it the soul of the earth. When stars twinkle in the sky at night and the shadow of Baobab falls on the earth, it feels like this tree is a witness to the beginning of the universe. Its stability, its silence and its grandeur make humans realize that the power is not in noise but in stability. The Baobab tree teaches us that no matter how hard life is, if the roots are attached to the earth, no storm can bring it down. A city hidden in the middle of Jordan's desert, among the red sand, and among the high walls of stones, looks like someone has carved a real art in the veins of the earth. This is Petra, a city 2000 years old which was built by the Nabataean civilization by cutting the stones. There is no brick, no mortar, only mountains, hammers and the amazing patience of humans. The sun's light changes all day and with it changes the color of Petra. In the morning it is golden, in the afternoon it is red and in the evening it shines like a deep Jammu stone, as if the city is breathing. In ancient times, Petra was the center of trade routes where Arabs, Egyptians and traders from India stayed with their camels. The most powerful symbol of this city is Al Khazneh, which is called the treasure temple. The carvings carved on its walls are so fine that it looks like it was not made on stone but on clay. It is believed that it was made in the form of kings' tombs but the layers of its mysteries have not been fully revealed even today. Many scientists believe that Petra had an underground water system which made this city memorable even in the desert. The nomads cut down the mountains and made water channels which collected rainwater and brought it to every house. Over time, wars, earthquakes and natural disasters destroyed this city. The sand covered its roads and it was almost forgotten that life used to live here. Hundreds of years later, in the 19th century, a European explorer excavated it again and then the world saw for the first time that stones can also be alive. Today, Petra is called the rose of the desert because its reddish color spread on the walls shows a glimpse of a new life with every sunrise. It is not just an example of establishment but also a symbol of the limit of human imagination. When travellers pass through the Sankradarya called Sikh and a powerful face of Al-Qajneh appears in front of them then that moment feels like an unimaginable vision. The smell of history in the air around and the silence in the voice of a civilization. Petra is still silent but every stone of it speaks telling that civilizations do not perish but turn into stones and become infinite. When thousands of lamps illuminate its paths at night then it feels like this city is still alive but asleep. This is the place where time stands still and man understands that the greatest mysteries of the universe are often hidden in the silence of stones. The miracle of the high cliffs of Ireland. These huge cliffs spread on the west coast of Ireland on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean are one of the few places on earth where the nature appears like a deity. These 700 feet high and 9 mile long cliffs seem to have risen from the heart of the earth. There is a resonance in the air here of waves, winds and time. When the powerful waves of the Atlantic collide with the stones below then their resonance reverberates on the entire shore and that reverberation goes down to the inside of man. It is said that the person standing on this place no matter how stable he is the air shakes his soul. According to geography, the cliffs of Mohair are about 30 crore years old. They were built when huge rivers flowed on the earth and the layers of sand and soil on their bottom were formed. In millions of years, these layers took the form of hard stones and the constant waves of the ocean slowly carved them into this amazing shape. Every layer here tells the story of the evolution of the earth. The oldest age at the bottom, the new age at the top and the death of time in every layer. This is why scientists call it the open diary of the earth. But beyond science, this place contains such spirituality that cannot be bound in words. The air is so powerful that it is useless to even try to speak here. The air is the language here. It whistles, lifts the waves and sometimes creates a sound that sounds like the sound of an ancient instrument. Locals believe that this sound is of those souls who have sunk into the sea and now show their presence through the air. Many times, the heavy sound descends so fast that everything disappears in front of the eyes. There is no direction, no shape, just an empty space in which only the sound of the waves reverberates. These rocks were named Moher after an ancient fort nearby, which was here centuries ago but now only the remains are left. Kimvadanti says that a monk used to live in this fort who used to talk to the waves of the sea every day. It is said that one day, that monk sank into the sea but his prayer still resonates in these waves. Many travellers have claimed that when everything is quiet at night, then you can hear someone's soft chants from the sea and a light fragrance floats in the air which is not found anywhere else. There are more than 30,000 birds living on the rocks of Moher. Seagulls, guillemots and rare puffin birds make their nests here. The sound of their wings and the waves create a natural music. In the morning, when the first rays of the sun fall on the surface of the Atlantic, the whole coast is bathed in a golden hue and the shadows of the rocks are reflected in the sea as if the earth itself is looking at its reflection. This scene changes in the evening. When the sun sets, the whole coast is bathed in red and orange hue and the breeze on the rocks is like sparkling dust. At that moment, this place looks like another planet. It is vast, quiet and mysterious. The weather here is also a puzzle in itself. Sometimes the wind is strong, sometimes the thick fog swallows the whole coast. Sometimes the weather changes so much that in a few minutes, light, rain and then darkness can be seen all at once. Local guides say that if one day there is complete silence here and the wind also stops, that day is not ordinary because it happens very rarely. In that silence, they say, an invisible force descends on the earth. Cliffs of Moher are not just a natural structure, but a symbol of that relationship that has been formed between man and nature for thousands of years. Standing here, man feels his limits. The wind is so strong, the sea is so vast and the rocks are so high that they erase the human ego. It feels like this place is saying, you are momentary, I am infinite. This experience is so deep that many travelers sit quietly without taking a picture, without speaking. They just listen, see and feel. It is said that in some of the cracks here, the remains of ancient sea creatures are still present which are evidence of the initial life of this earth. This is the place where the sea and the rock had written the story of life together. And even today, when the waves touch those cracks, it feels like history is repeating its memories. The government has made strict rules to protect these rocks. No major construction can be done here so that its natural balance does not deteriorate. Millions of people come here every year, but they are allowed to walk within the boundaries. This is not only for the protection of the sea, but also for the respect of those souls whose stories echo in this earth. At night, when the moon's rays fall on the Atlantic and the surface of the sea starts shining like silver, then the rocks of Moher stand like a sacred dam. At that moment, every wave of the wind, every layer of the stone and every sound of the sea gives the same message. The earth is alive and its heart beats here. Perhaps this is the reason why anyone who comes here always feels the echo of this place within himself. Cliffs of Moher is not just a view, it is an experience. Such an experience that stops time and teaches man that mystery is not always outside, sometimes it is inside too. 10. Yubeng Village A snow-covered paradise. Hidden among the vast mountains of the Himalayas, in the lap of clouds and snow-covered peaks, is Yubeng Village, a place where reaching is a test in itself. Located in the depths of the Yunnan province of China, the village is situated at an altitude of about 10,000 feet. There is no road to reach here. Only with the help of foot or mules, one can reach here by crossing dense forests and snow-covered peaks. This difficulty makes this place a mystery because those who reach here say that this is not just a village, but the corner of the earth where time has stopped. Yubeng is surrounded by snow-covered mountains and there is always a sheet of fog floating on it. When the rays of the sun pierce this fog, the whole view seems like a dream world. Only a few hundred people live in the village who still maintain their traditional Tibetan beliefs and lifestyle in the same way as it was done centuries ago. The houses here are made of wood and stones, with flags of prayer waving in the air Every morning when the temple bells ring and the smell of incense spreads in the air, it seems as if the whole village is in meditation. According to local legends, Yubeng was once the resting place of the gods. It is said that once a divine soul descended here who blessed the village that this place will always be safe from the noise of the outside world. Perhaps this is the reason why modern technology and fast living have not been able to reach the limits here. There is no internet here, no electricity, no sound of vehicles, only the sounds of nature and the breath of the mountains. When night falls, the sky is filled with stars and some of the stars seem so close that you can touch them with your hands. This village is not only spiritual but also culturally unique. Despite the height, cold and limited resources here, people live a happy and balanced life. They do not struggle with nature, but know how to live in harmony with it. Their farming is dependent on the weather and they celebrate every season like a festival. Here, every person's day begins with sunrise and ends with sunset. This lifestyle takes them closer to the simplicity that modernity has lost. Tourists who come here often say that as soon as they reach Yubeng, something inside them changes. Tiredness disappears, the mind calms down and a strange clarity comes to the heart. Some travellers have said that there is no sense of time in this village. The clocks run, but the moments remain. According to scientists, due to the lack of height and oxygen, the speed of the mind slows down, but the locals consider it a spiritual experience. They say that this village purifies the soul and erases the fear hidden inside. When snow covers the entire valley in winter, Yubeng looks like a dream world. There is white everywhere, smoke rising from wooden houses in the middle and the sound of Buddhist chants in the air. In this season, the village is completely cut off from the outside world, but it is not a difficulty for the residents, but a penance. They believe that every winter makes the soul more determined. Yubeng is not just a village, but a mirror in which a person can see his true self. A part of peace, silence and nature. Every person who reaches here leaves something behind inside him. Ego, fear or restlessness and while returning, takes a new silence inside him. Perhaps the deepest meaning of life is hidden in this silence. That's all for today's video. These wonderful places on earth have taught us that mysteries are alive not only in the past, but also in the present. We just have to stop, listen and feel to see them. Because sometimes, not in the biggest words, but in the silence where nature speaks.
