Lonar
Lake
Lonar Lake is the best and the youngest preserved
crater lake which is found in basalt rock, and it
is 52,000 years old. This lake is the only one of its kind in the whole world, and it was formed when a gigantic meteor crashed
down into the planet Earth at a high speed which was estimated at ninety kilometers per hour.
Over a long period
of time, the jungle was over and above the deep
and great depression and later a stream transformed that crater lake into
the tranquil space which is an emerald lake. Currently, the fringed lake, which is located around the Buldhana, is a wildlife habitat with an ecology which is different from its surrounding landscape. The water of this lake
supports some of the rare micro-organisms which are rarely found in other parts of the world. Its surroundings have fragments containing some unique
expensive minerals such as maskelynite.
Borra Caves
Most people around the world are not lucky enough to
come across real caves in their lifetime. The formation of Borra Caves, which are based around the Ananthagiri hills, are proof
that great and attracting things can develop when water comes into contact with
the limestone.
Borra Caves are some of the deepest caves in India and the whole world. Borra Caves were formed many years ago due to the karstic
actions of the river Gosthani.
Some of the local tribes associate several and different myths associated with
the cave. Borra Caves are recognized for
anthropological study with excavations stone
tools of Paleolithic culture which
confirms that there were people who were
living there for many years ago to date back
to 30,000 - 50,000 years ago.

Lake
This is the largest freshwater lake with natural water
around the northern-eastern part of India. It is a lake of a unique ecosystem
called phumdi meaning vegetation, organic
matter and floating nets of soil. Phumdis appear in different forms which float
on the freshwater lake serving as a lifeline
for all the societies living around the lake.

region of this lake, which makes the lake to be more special. Lamjao

world. It is a home of the Manipuris brow-antlered deer in sangria. This area is also a home of more than 235 brands of

attraction in India. The rocks are found on river
Narmada, which is three km long.
Sangestar
Lake
This lake was formed due to earthquake activities. The name of this lake is spelled as shoNgaseir
by the local people after the shok
community was transformed to the lake
because of earthquake activities back in
the year 1970. It is as well referred to
as Madhuri Lake shortly after a famous
actress took a video around here for the
famous film Koyla and it is revered by Buddhists
for both the Tibet and India. Many rotten tree trunks that were one time alive
before the activities of the earthquake emerged from the waters of this lake to
create haunting imagery before the visitors. It is very important to
remember that you require special permission from
the district commissioner's office which
is approximately 30 kilometers away to be granted a permission to
visit the Sangestar Lake.
Seek and
Hide Beach
This beach is located around the Balasore district
in Odisha and it is a home to a wonder
which is rarely found in other areas around
the world. Each day, the lake here
recedes at ebb until it almost goes and
then it comes back afterward to fill up the void during the high tide.
Note that this seek and hide of this lake appears
only twice during the day and this is the purpose why this beach is a home that
hosts unique and various species such as the red crabs and the
horseshoe crabs. It is a good experience to see and
watch the waters disappearing and coming back.
Magnetic
Hill
This is a hill where Isaac
Newton’s law of gravity does not apply. This hill is 14,000 feet high above the
sea level and it is based on the Leh national
highway, which is about 35 km from the Leh. As you reach the venue, a certain
indication along the highway will invite
you to stop over a marked square on the road before you switch off your car while in a neutral gear. When you can follow those instructions, the motor
car will appear to roll up the hill without being driven at a low speed of
between 10 and 20 kilometers per 60
minutes. The reason for it to happen is nothing strange
but due to an illusion that the down to
the hill highway is an up mountain road. This situation can also be seen at Kalo mountains of Bhuj.
