1. The Door To Hell
This

burning 35 years ago and has not stopped till date. It is 70 meters wide
 and was discovered in 1971. When it was found, scientists did not 
calculate the among of gas it held very accurately which is why it still
 continues to go up in flames. You may not be able to visit this but you
 can see it from a distance.
2. Mounth Roraima
This
 is a tabletop mountain in Venezuela, Guyana and Brazil. One can go till
 the top with the help of a natural ramp that was formed years ago. If 
you do not wish to take the staircase, you should go back and take some 
rock climbing lessons for a few years before returning.
3. Meteor Crater
This
 crater is located in the United States and was created over 50000 years

and wooly mammoths. Fortunately, no humans were present which is why it 
continues to be as unique and beautiful as it is.

steep and has turned into a forest over the years. The Great Dune of 
Pyla is very famous among those who like to indulge in adventure sports 
especially paragliding.
5. Socotra
This
 is considered to be the weirdest and most unusual looking place on the 
planet. It is isolated because of which the vegetation found here is 
unlike anything you will ever see. One such tree is the Dragon’s Blood 
Tree which produces sap that is red in color. It is unnatural looking 
and so are the spiders and birds that reside here. If you decide to 
visit this place, be sure to take several photographs!

 place is in Greenland and while it may not be beautiful, it is

this place but you definitely should.

and once you get used to the smell, you will not be sorry that you 
visited!
