| Magnetic Hills |
Ladakh,India:- Can you ever imagine the movement of your vehicle up a steep mountain, with its ignition off? Hard to digest, right? Well, the people who've travel to Ladakh have seen their vehicle accelerating at a speed of 20 km with the engines turned off. It is no magic. The magnetic properties of this place are considered responsible for it.To kill the magnetic impact, the helicopters and aircrafts fly at a greater speed. While the scientists believe that the surroundings of Ladakh create an optical illusion like Ames room and thus a downhill route seems to be an uphill route to the viewer. Whatever the reason is, this fun-ride has certainly entertained many tourists and has become the USP of this place.
Indonesia:- A home to desperate souls, these multi-colored lakes of the Kelimuttu volcano is a wonder in itself. The Red one is the 'Enchanted Lake', the green one is the 'Lake of Young Men and Maidens' and the blue one 'Lake of Old People'. However the color of this lakes can change as a result of chemical phenomena.
