Probably everyone has heard about the mysterious "face" on Mars? Or about the pyramids in the same place? It turns out that the Earth is full of such unusual and strange places. Secrets of the planet Earth, Anomalous zones, Anomalous places.
ABHAYAGIRI (Sanskrit) - Mountain of Fearlessness in Ceylon, on which there is an ancient vihara (monastery), where in the Middle Ages lived many Buddhist monks from the heretical school Abhayagiri Vasinah (School of the Secret Forest). The mountain and the school, which was located on it, is considered the most mystical and mysterious in Ceylon. About the fate of the strangely missing people (and in 400 A. D. there were about 5 thousand of them) it is only known that they left the island and settled on the other side of the Himalayas, possibly in the Shambhala region. However, so far no traces of their settlements or the descendants of these people have been found.
WILD PLACE- the old name of anomalous places where the most incredible incidents are possible, first of all - a complete loss of spatial orientation. The size of such anomalies varies from 100–200 m to 1–5 km. For townspeople who rarely visit nature, wandering, for example, in the forest is natural: there are no landmarks, the trees are similar, besides, the step with one foot (more often with the right) for most people is a few centimeters shorter than the other, which is why he has no experience a person who sets the direction of the landmark cannot walk in a straight line, but begins to describe circles with a diameter of 3-4 km. Many legends about evil spirits striving to whirl the traveler are associated with this feature of the body. Many, but obviously not all. Villagers who are more accustomed to hiking in the woods lose orientation much less often, and this happens, as a rule, in prodigal places,well known to the peasants of the surrounding villages. In a rare village they will not show such. How can we explain that in certain places even an experienced person risks getting lost? It is easiest to assume that the witchcraft of prodigal places is explained by the nature of the terrain: for example, a heavily overgrown area of a homogeneous forest or, as is the case between the villages of Usadye and Bokovo, located on the banks of the Oka, a poorly trodden path, which also passes through dense bushes, forks, and even locals often confuse them. Perhaps in some cases, the appearance of the Prodigals is facilitated by magnetic field anomalies. It has now been firmly proven that any person has their own magnetic compass located at the base of the nose (according to other sources, in the cerebral cortex). Citizens have a magnetic flair at best at the subconscious level,savages use it quite consciously, while our ordinary villagers occupy some intermediate position: they often use their natural compass without realizing it. Perhaps the formation of "enchanted places" is facilitated by undeveloped deposits of iron ores, which are not of industrial importance.
VODLOZERO is a possible habitat of a strange unidentified creature in Karelia. In 1928, over the village of Shuknavolok near Vedlozero, a ten-meter long cylindrical body was observed flying, from the tail of which a red flame and sparks emanated. After breaking through the ice, the object went under water. After that, local residents began to meet on the shore a certain big-headed creature a little over a meter tall with thin arms and legs. In 1932, a dense black cloud descended on the village, leaving a jelly-like substance on the ground. Now in the village of Shuknavolok there are strange interference with television.
UARAS is an anomalous zone, an area in the Western Cordilleras (Peru), where, according to Peruvian ufologists, UFO sightings are very often observed. For example, in the summer of 1996, a terrible panic among the Peruvian shepherds was caused by the appearance and landing with a terrible roar and a sharp cooling of the surrounding air at once 2 saucer-shaped apparatus, from one came two large-headed humanoid creatures that took samples in a local stream [ITAR-TASS message from 24.08.1996]. Later reports on manifestations of anomalous phenomena in this area were not so detailed.
UBAR is a legendary and amazing lost city in its history, which perished from an unknown disaster. Ubar has always been considered a literary fiction, but in 1990, archaeologists from the United States discovered in the sands of Oman the strange ruins of numerous towers built 4500 years ago.
WHITBY, Whitby - Potentially anomalous site, an English abbey notorious for a large number of eyewitness sightings. It is here that the castle is located, notorious for the fact that its gloomy walls inspired the writer Bram STOCKER to write the book Lord Dracula. The appearance of ghosts in the castle is noted to this day, as, for example, is sure of the manager of the abbey, Lesley STAINTORP, who one morning personally saw a silhouette of a translucent ghost in the window opening in the castle. Locals also unanimously claim that in addition to the castle, ghosts also took a fancy to the local cemetery and monastery, in the wall of which a nun, who had broken her vow, was once immured, who had the imprudence to fall in love with a visiting knight.
MESSAGE BALLS - mysterious stone formations of perfectly round shape, discovered in the late 1940s in the jungle of the Central American Republic of Costa Rica. The balls have a wide variety of sizes - from ten centimeters to three or more meters in diameter. During aerial photography, it turned out that they are not scattered over the surface of the earth by chance, but are geometric shapes. Their purpose remains a mystery. Experts are puzzled by the origin of the balls themselves. It has even been suggested that they were created by aliens, because the ancient people clearly could not turn the stone to such an ideal shape. However, geologists claim that round boulders are also found in the pits and folds of the stone bed of mountain rivers. The rapid flow causes them to rotate, forming round formations over time. Such balls could appear after the passage of glaciers during the Great Icing. The fact is that round riddles, as it turned out, are found almost everywhere. In Kazakhstan, during the development of a sand pit, several large specimens of such boulders were found at a fairly large depth. Several dozen more of these stones are found in the Always ravine - 5 km west of Zhirnovsk in the Volgograd region.

TEL KHAZNA TEMPLE- an ancient complex of buildings excavated by Moscow archaeologists in northern Syria, one of the earliest known religious buildings on the planet, built at the end of the 4th millennium BC. e. Experts from the Institute of Archeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences believe that the temple was built by the architects of one of the ancient Semitic peoples (there were no others in those regions then), but which one exactly remains to be seen. In the center of the prehistoric village, built in the shape of an oval, there is an 8-meter cone-shaped temple tower. According to the members of the expedition, it was perfectly preserved - even the plaster on the walls remained. The structure looks the same as it did 6 thousand years ago, a rare piece of luck for archaeologists. All buildings, including living quarters, are made of clay bricks mixed with straw. The excavations have yielded many sensational finds. From a depth of almost 15 m, archaeologists have raised a clay tablet dated to the 3rd millennium BC. e., in which the ancient agronomist kept records of the harvest. The man of that time outwardly looked the same as the modern one. One of the burials found in the village testifies to the fact that ancient people had a rather large constitution. In a stone grave, scientists found the skeleton of a huge 2-meter man, buried, according to the then rite, on his side with bent legs. Perhaps from this it follows that over 6 thousand years the Semites have considerably reduced their growth. What was the reason is unknownthat the ancient people had a fairly large physique.

ARIZON CRATER(Barringer Crater, Devil's Canyon) is one of the largest and best-preserved meteor craters located near Diablo Canyon in northern Arizona (USA). The current dimensions of the crater: diameter - 1265 m, depth - 175 m, the elevation of the rampart - 40-48 m it was the body of a meteorite that was discovered underground in this area using a drilling rig, but attempts to commercialize nickel from underground have failed. The location of the crater was known for a long time to local Indians, who used metal fragments of the meteorite for their own purposes. Local tribes have a huge number of legends and stories associated with this sacred place. Scientists only became aware of the existence of the crater since 1891. This is not the largest meteorite to hit Earth. In Antarctica, on Wilkes Island in 1962, a meteorite crater with a diameter of 241 kilometers and a depth of 800 m was discovered. In Canada, on the coast of Hudson Bay, there is a crater with a diameter of 443 km. From the 1950s to the present, numerous tourists and locals have reported their sightings over the Arizona Crater: air glows and UFO hovering. According to some reports, gravimagnetic and chronal anomalies are sometimes observed in the center of the crater. The crater has been used more than once as a backdrop for filming fantastic films about the travels of earthlings to other planets, about the arrival of huge UFOs in their "secret harbor, closed from prying eyes."In Antarctica, on Wilkes Island, a meteorite crater with a diameter of 241 kilometers and a depth of 800 m was discovered in 1962.
