Top six strangest places on earth you have to see to believe!

Our world is a mysterious place. Hidden beneath the veneer of civilization, cities and bustling population is a world no one has seen and few have visited. Here is a list of six places that will amaze you and also creep you out to a certain extent! But they do exists, nonetheless!

#1   The Doll Island, Mexico:

In Xochimilco island in Mexico, lies the Doll Island. Legend has it that one day, a little girl died in the canals surrounding this little island. From that day, dolls of all shapes and sizes would wash ashore! Only one person lives on the island, the caretaker. He hangs the dolls that float ashore on a tree with threads in memory of the dead girl.

Varosha was once built as a resort city on the coast of Cyprus. But after the Turkish invasion in 1974, the town got quickly evacuated. Today, there is not a single living soul in the city. Despite the blue sea and rolling waves and the town looking like a bustling centre from a distance, Varosha is completely uninhabited!

#3   Maunsell Sea Forts, English North Sea:

This may look like a still from a science fiction movie. These elevated chambers were built during World War II to protect England from a Nazi invasion. Today, they stand empty like ghostly sentinels guarding the mainland. The only living things that inhabit these little fortresses are sea gulls and other marine life.

#4   Gnomesville Australia:

A complete bridge made only for wildlife to cross? Sounds unbelievable?

A great step for preserving their fauna.
