While we have yet to discover any compelling or irrefutable evidence of extraterrestrial life, our fascination with the unknown and unexplored continues to grow. While we may or may not ever see proof in our age, here are some of the world’s most strange-looking landscapes.
#01 Lake Baikal, in the Russian Siberian region of southern Russia, has emerald ice (The oldest known lake in the world)

This lovely lake, which the locals affectionately refer to as “the jewel of Asia,” is situated between the Irkutsk Oblast and the Republic of Buryatia, in the south of Siberia. It is thought to be 25 million years old and to be 1,680 meters deep, making it the world’s deepest lake.
#02 Giants Causeway located in Northern Ireland

The Giant’s Causeway is a geological wonder and the undoubted highlight of a voyage down the east coast of County Antrim, Northern Ireland’s most visited natural enclave.
This marvel is built up of 40,000 basalt columns, the majority of which are hexagonal, that drop to the sea in stages. Legend has it that it emerged from a struggle between two giants, the Irish Finn McCool and the Scotsman Bennandoner, who threw so many pebbles at each other that they formed a stone path on the sea.
The Giant’s Causeway was formed 55 to 60 million years ago after an eruption. A big lava flow must have become stuck in the terrain’s slope. The upper portion, which was exposed to the air, cooled more quickly than the lower portion. The polygonal columns were formed when the clay soil contracted, similar to how clay soil splits when it loses water.
#03 Tianzi Moutains in China

They are found in Hunan province, southeast China. The park has more than 3,100 stone pillars, all of the different heights, some of them reaching 800 meters. As a curiosity, James Cameron was inspired by this park to make the Avatar world.
#04 Fly Geyser in Nevada, USA (The flying geyser)

In 1916, a group of men drilled into the land in quest of water for their crops and plantations. They discovered water, but it was thermal and at a temperature of 200oC. The tube that this gang of guys had opened functioned as an escape route to the river after a few years. The stone has been stained red by carbonate sediments, creating a magnificent environment.
#05 Mount Roraima located in eastern Venezuela

This magnificent mountain, which rises more than a thousand meters above the park’s woodland and is regarded one of the planet’s oldest geological places, is the highest point of the Tepuyes plateau series, which is mostly found in Venezuela.
#06 Dallol volcano in Ethiopia

It is both a hazardous and lovely area on the planet. Salt, acid, noxious gases, and flowing magma fill the area around Ethiopia’s Dallol volcano. A group of scientists is investigating the origins of life there.
This African peak is a mine from a geological standpoint. It is also one of the world’s most hostile environments: a “alien” landscape with temperatures of more than 50 degrees, pierced by the Dallol volcano’s wounds and colored in bright yellow and green, with oozing magma and boiling water pools, pierced by the wounds of the Dallol volcano and colored in bright yellow and green.
Add in an unpleasant odor caused by sulfur vapors, as well as the presence of salt, acids, minerals, and unusual microbes, and it’s easy to see why scientists are drawn to the area.
#07 Pamukkale in Denizli province, southwestern Turkey

Cotton Castle is the Spanish version, and it is located in the southwest of Turkey. Thick layers of limestone and travertine are formed naturally and run down the slope, giving the impression of an icy landscape, but this has nothing to do with reality: the location where they are situated has a temperate environment all year.
#08 Red Beach in Panjin, China

It gets its red hue from a native plant called Marine Sargadilla, which covers more than 3,000 hectares. As a result, it is not red all year; the best time to visit is in the autumn, when the color is at its peak.
#09 Abraham Lake in Alberta, Canada

This peculiar natural occurrence distinguishes this lake as one of the most unique in the world. What we see are bubbles that have frozen before rising to the surface.
#10 Zhangye Danxia National Geological Park, China

This park covers 300 square kilometers in the northwest of the People’s Republic of China. As if they were artists, the various minerals were painting these mountains.
#11 Grand Prismatic Spring in Wyoming, United States
It is the greatest source of hot springs in the United States and the third in the world, and it is found in Yellowstone National Park.

#12 Naica Mine in Chihuahua, Mexico

The creation of crystals inside this massive mine is well-known around the world. However, none of the chambers are exposed to the public since the temperatures within are so extreme that even geological research is impossible.
#13 Glowworms Cave on the North Island of New Zealand

Waitomo is home to several caves. Its most notable feature is the presence of glow worm-like fireflies that adorn the caves’ interiors, leaving photographs as lovely as this one.
#14 Skaftafell Glacier in Reykjavik, Iceland

This strange landscape may be seen in Iceland, protected by Europe’s largest national park, Vatnajökull. There are also massive waterfalls in the park.
#15 Painted Dunes, Lassen Volcanic National Park in California, USA

These dunes, which are found in the Lassen Volcanic National Park, are built up of layers of oxidized volcanic ash.
#16 Dragon Blood trees, Socotra, Yemen

These trees were created 65 million years ago, and their name comes from the fact that when they are chopped, the resin has a deep crimson tint that resembles blood.
