Zona del Silencio
There exist a number of “accursed sites” on the surface of our planet. Some of these locations are the sites of gravitational or atmospheric disturbances that still remain unexplained by twentieth century science. Such anomalous areas possess properties which interfere sporadically with humans and their equipment. La Zona Del Silencio , or the Zone of Silence, is a patch of desert near the Bolson de Mapimi in Mexico, in a place known as the Trino Vertex. |
One of the many unusual observable properties in this area is its high levels of magnetite and uranium deposits, to which scientists attribute electromagnetic pulses that are said to be the source of the disrupted signals. The area is also a hotbed for meteorites, the remnants of which scientists theorize exude magnetic properties that may explain why so many iron-rich objects from space end up here.
Other, more unexplainable, activity of this nature is reported here, such as the area’s reputation for strange lights, UFO sightings and alien encounters. Some even believe it has been used in the past—and present—as a portal for aliens. Ranchers have cited tales of strange lights and odd strangers that appear from nowhere and claim to come “from above”. On an interesting note, the Zone of Silence is geographically parallel with the Egyptian pyramids and the Bermuda Triangle , and is located just north of the Tropic of Cancer. |
The Mysterious Devil’s City of the Gobi Desert
Within the Chinese Gobi Desert lies the Yadan National Geological Park, on the northwest of Dunhuang, Gansu, 185 km (115 mi) away from the city of Dunhuang. Stretching for 25 kilometers north to south and 2 kilometers east to west, sprawling over a total area of 50 km2 (12,355 acres). The park is known for its collections of unique natural formations found nowhere else. The bizarre, twisted and surreal landscape found here is the result of what is referred to as Yadan landforms, a term derived from the Uyghur language and meaning “steep hill.” The Yadan landforms in their current state are thought to have been formed over a period of between 300,000-700,000 years and the Yadan National Geological Park holds the largest number of such unique formations in the world. The numerous boulders and earthen mounds of various topographies, some up to 20 meters in height, have been sculpted by the elements into artistic shapes that seem as if they have been crafted by human hands, and that have been variously described as resembling castles, stairs, pavilions, temples, pagodas, walls, palaces, vehicles such as buses and boats, human faces, animals, and strange, terrifying creatures. |
Amid all of these amazing landforms is the infamous Dunhuang Devil Town, also called “Demon City,” “Ghost City,” and Moguicheng, which means “The City of the Devil,” an area with a particularly high concentration of Yadan landforms that give the eerie appearance of an actual abandoned town with buildings, roads, squares, and walls that have the illusion of having been carefully placed intentionally by mysterious hands. The most bizarre aspect of the Demon City are the inexplicable mysterious sounds said to emanate from it and the surrounding area. The sounds come in many variations. It is said that during the day, one can hear what sounds like guitar strings being plucked, the tingling of bells, and human voices whispering, shouting, and even singing. The sources of these strange sounds are not clear, and most of the time they are said to seem to come from all directions at once, as if materializing from the air itself. Locals believe they are the voices of ghosts, spirits, or demons. Although it is more likely that the sounds are some as yet misunderstood effect of the wind on the various unusual Yadan landforms, it is still a mystery as to what causes this weird phenomenon, and research into the acoustics of the area has been inconclusive. |
