 Sanctuary of Monte Sant’Angelo, Italy

There is no lack of places, that are considered holy in Italy. Sanctuary of Monte Sant’Angelo is one of them. Dedicated to the Archangel Michael, the sanctuary is a complex of buildings around a cave. Located in the province of Foggia, this limestone cavern is believed to be a place of worship since the Greek and Roman times.

In between the end of the fifth and the beginning of the sixth century, rise of the cult of the Archangel Michael began.

The first temple was a cave itself, but time passed and now the complex includes: the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore, Baptistery, two Gothic arches, marble statues, a bell tower, and an 86-step staircase. In the heart of the sanctuary, visitors can read an inscription of the Archangel’s words: “There, where the rock opens wide, the sins of men shall be forgiven”

 Lake Hillier – Australia

Australia’s famous pink Lake Hillier. Located offshore on Middle Island, part of the Recherche Archipelago.Lake Hillier is notable for its high salt content.

They said -”Even if you scooped a pail of water from this lake, the bright pink color would remain.” That’s because it isn’t a trick of the light: algae give this lake its glossy pink sheen. It’s even safe to swim in, but good luck getting there—(without a helicopter!) The lake keeps its deep pink color year-round.

The Nasca Lines, Peru

In 1927, when Airlines started flying over Peru and the Nazca region that passengers reported strange lines, figures and shapes on the ground.

The Nasca Lines are a series of large ancient geoglyphs in the Nazca Desert-(southern Peru.) The largest figures are up to (1,200 ft) 370 m long. 

They cover an area of some 50 miles, and were supposedly created between 200 BC and 700 AD by the Nazca Indians. It is 15 miles wide and runs some 37 miles parallel to the Andes and the Pacific Ocean.

There are over 800 straight lines,(in total) 300 geometric figures and 70 animal and plant designs, also called biomorphs. The Longest glyph found at Nazca goes for 9 miles.

The Horsetail Fall at Yosemite National Park, United States

Horsetail fall is a small waterfall that flows over the eastern edge at Yosemite Valley National Park. For two weeks in February, the setting sun striking the waterfall creates a deep orange glow known as the “firefall” effect.

This waterfall descends in two streams side by side. The eastern one drops 470 meters (1,540 feet), and the western one 480 meters (1,570 feet).

Around the second week of February, the setting sun hits Horsetail Fall at just the right angle to illuminate the upper reaches of the waterfall.

And when conditions are perfect, Horsetail Fall glows orange and red at sunset.

Spotted Lake Khiluk – Canada

Lake Khiluk is the most mineralized lake in the world. Each spot holds a different cure. It’s located in British Columbia, Canada, northwest of the town of Osoyoos.

According to the First Nations Okanagan (Sylix) tribe, Lake Khiluk is a sacred place of healing. The Okanagan tribe used the water in the spots to treat conditions such as warts, skin disease, body aches, and battle wounds.

 

The unique lake can be viewed on Highway 3, northwest of the small town of Osoyoos – visitors are asked not to trespass on tribal land.

 The Giant’s Causeway, North Ireland

The result of an ancient volcanic eruption, these are perfectly straight rocks jutting out of the sea. Sixty million years ago a huge volcanic eruption spewed out a mass of molten basalt, which then solidified and contracted as it cooled, creating the cracks that can be seen today.

There are an estimated 37,000 polygon columns at this World Heritage Site, so geometrically perfect that local legend has it they were created by a giant.

UNESCO declared it as a world Heritage site in 1986. The Giant Causeway has about 40,000 interlocking columns made from basalt. The columns have a unique hexagonal shape. The columns are reminiscent of huge stepping stones. Some actually go as high 39 feet into the air.
