10. Mount Roraima
This giant plateau soars up into the sky and is often surrounded by a sea of clouds. It has its own very unique ecosystem with many tall waterfalls and highly specialized plant and animal species such as pitcher plants and the Roraima bush toad. Located on the border of Venezuela, Guyana, and Brazil, 75% of the mountain is in Venezuelan territory.

9. Pripyat
Following the nuclear disaster at Chernobyl in 1986, thousands of people were evacuated from the neighboring city of Pripyat. Over 30 years later, most of the town is still there, frozen in time and left to decay.

8. McMurdo Dry Valleys
The McMurdo Dry Valleys are a row of snow-free valleys in Antarctica. What? No snow in Antarctica???
That’s right. The Dry Valleys have extremely low humidity levels and the mountains around the valley prevent any ice from flowing down around it from glaciers.

7. Abandoned Military Hospital
Beelitz-Heilstätten is a district in Beelitz, Germany that is made famous by a hospital complex that contains almost 60 buildings. At first, the complex was built to treat TB and then became a sanatorium . But at the beginning of the first war, it became a military hospital.

6. Travertine Pools of Pamukkale
Pamukkale means "cotton castle" in Turkish which makes sense, once you see the pools in this place! They are made up of hot springs and travertines which are terraces of carbonate minerals left by the flowing water.

5. Richat Structure
The Richat Structure or the Eye of the Sahara is a mysterious round formation found in the Sahara near Mauritania.
It appears to be some sort of sci-fi experiment, but it is actually a deeply eroded, slightly elliptical dome that is 25 miles wide.

4. Shicheng, China
Shicheng City or China’s Atlantis or Lion City, is an underwater city in the Chinese province of Zhejiang. This city is strange for two reasons! It was forgotten and lost for thousands of years…and it has survived remarkably well underwater!

3. Fly Geyser
Likely the most beautiful geyser in the world, Fly Geyser can be found in Washoe County, Nevada. It is just 5 feet high, by 12 feet wide. So why is it is amazing or mysterious? Well look at it! It isn’t natural, but rather the result of a test site after a geothermal power company drilled into the rock.




2. The Maunsell Sea Forts
From afar, these guys look kind of like oil rigs or something, but they’re really just old sea forts known as the Maunsell Forts. These were built during WWII to help defend the UK. Each fort has built-in firearms and were originally used by both army and navy personnel, a rare occurrence.

1. Door to Hell
If the name isn’t enough to scare you, wait till you hear the story behind the Gates of Hell. Officially known as the Darvaza gas crater, the “door” is actually a natural gas field in Derweze, Turkmenistan. When seen up close, which you never ever really want to be, you will see fire, boiling mud, and orange flames in the hole.

10. Captain Kidd’s Treasure
Captain Kidd once hunted pirates for a living, but turned to the dark side in the late 1600s… attacking merchant vessels in the Caribbean and reaching as far as Madagascar. He returned to America, though, and was arrested, sent back to England, and hanged for his crimes in 1701.

9. A Skeleton
In 2015, council workers were carrying out survey work to prepare for building an extension to a primary school in Edinburgh when they made a gruesome discovery… what is believed to be the corpse of a pirate. The bones have been tested and found to have been from a man in his 50’s who lived during the 16th or 17th century.

8. Underground Smuggling Network
Cornwall, in the south-west of England, was a popular place for pirates and smugglers to bring their ill-gotten gains ashore. In 2008 a crew of builders working on the renovation of a waterfront warehouse in the town of Penzance found two escape hatches that led underground. Good name right, get it, pirates of Penzance. The 2-foot square holes have access to two tunnels that stretched beneath the roads to a local pub about 300 yards away.

7. Maps
When you think of pirates plundering treasure, the first things that springs to mind are chests full of gold and jewels, but they weren’t necessarily the most valuable things in their minds. Bartholomew Sharpe was an influential pirate from 1680, who traveled with his 300 men to Panama, where they captured a Spanish ship, the Trinity, and raided Spanish ships along the Pacific coastline of central and South America.

6. The Schiedam
With some pirates living more than 350 years ago, many artifacts that found their way to the seabed have now been covered over, but a storm in 2018 disrupted the sands around Cornwall and led to an amazing discovery. Divers spotted objects, such as hand grenades and cannons, which had come from the wreck of the Schiedam- a ship that had sunk off the Cornish coast in 1684.

5. The Pirate Executions of 1718
It’s well known that when the authorities were able to catch pirates, they usually made an example of them… but documents have been found that survive from 1718 that show that year was a particularly brutal one. Stede Bonnet was a famed pirate of the time, having been involved in the siege of Charleston, South Carolina alongside Blackbeard.

4. Visiting Japan
Pirates operated across the world, and recent evidence came to light that showed the first Australian ship to venture into Japanese waters was run by a crew of pirates escaping from Tasmania. There had long been a tale of a ship of convicts venturing into feudal Japan, which at the time was isolated from the rest of the world, but most had dismissed it as nothing more than legend.

3. Mass Burial
‘Black Sam” Bellamy was thought to have been the richest pirate ever, but all trace of him and his crew vanished following the wrecking of their ship, the Whydah Gally, off the coast of Cape Cod in 1717. They had amassed a fortune worth around 120 million dollars in today's currency, but it was only in 2018 that researchers discovered what had happened to them.

2. The Queen Anne’s Revenge
The most famous pirate of all time, Blackbeard, was notorious for his brutality, the burning gunpowder in his beard, and his surprisingly educated demeanor. He and his crew terrorized the waters of North Carolina with their ship ‘The Queen Anne's Revenge'. Perhaps his most famous act was the siege of Charleston in 1718, where the city was held hostage for several weeks while he demanded food, money, and supplies…

1. The Sunken Pirate City
By the late 1600s, the natural harbor at Port Royal had become the center of the English presence in Jamaica. It was the second largest European city in the new world, and soon became the notorious home of pirates and criminals. This soon became a dangerous place full of debauchery, and was once described as ‘the most wicked and sinful city in the world'.
