Strange Things Around The World
IntroductionThe world can sometimes be a very weird place. But guess what? Its about to get weirder. Science has a way of surprising us with all kinds of crazy phenomenon's that make little no sense to people without fancy schmancy degrees. I do my best to understand and my go-to favorite explanation.
Lake Natron
Lake Natronis asaltandsoda lakein theArusha Regionof northernTanzania. The lake is close to theKenyanborder and is in the Gregory Rift, which is the eastern branch of theEast African Rift. The lake is a maximum of 57 kilometres (35mi) long and 22 kilometres (14mi) wide. Temperatures at the lake are frequently above 40C (104F).
ContinueThe alkaline water in Lake Natron has a pH as high as 10.5 and is so caustic it can burn the skin and eyes of animals that aren't adapted to it. The water's alkalinity comes from the sodium carbonate and other minerals that flow into the lake from the surrounding hills. And deposits of sodium carbonate which was once used in Egyptian mummification also acts as a type of preservative for those animals unlucky enough to die in the waters of Lake Natron.

Located at the Southwestern tip of the island you will find a fascinating illusion. When viewed from above, a runoff of sand and silt deposits creates the impression of an underwater waterfall.

Danxia landform
The Danxia landform refers to various landscapes found in southeast, southwest and northwest China that "consist of a red bed characterized by steep cliffs". It is a unique type of petrographic geomorphology found in China. Danxia landform is formed from red colored sandstones and conglomerates of largely Cretaceous age. In 2010, several danxia landscapes in southern China, with a general name of "China Danxia", were inscribed as a World Heritage Site.
