Слайд 3Easter Island
On Easter Island there are monuments of Moai -

a group of huge human statues. Moai were carved between

about 1250 and 1500 AD by the earliest inhabitants of the island, and are believed to depict the ancestors of humans and local gods. Sculptures were carved and carved from tuff, volcanic rock, which is common on the island. The scientists found that there were originally 887 statues, but the years of struggle among the clans of the island led to their destruction. Today, only 394 statues still stand, the largest of which is 30 feet in height and weighs more than 70 tons.

Слайд 5 The pyramids of Yonaguni
Of all the famous monuments in Japan,

perhaps no one is more puzzling than Yonaguni, an underwater

formation that is located near the shore of the Rjuku islands. The site was discovered in 1987 by a group of divers watching the sharks. The find immediately caused a huge amount of debate in the Japanese scientific community. The monument is made up of a series of carved mountain formations including massive platforms and huge stone pillars that lie at a depth of 5 to 40 meters. The most popular formation is called "turtle" because of its unique shape. Streams in this area are quite dangerous, but this did not prevent the Yonaguni Monument from becoming one of the most popular dive sites in all of Japan.

Слайд 7Island of the Dolls
Just south of Mexico City, between the

canals of Xochimico you can find a small island with

a sad background which never intended to be a tourist destination. The island is known as Island of the Dolls.
It is dedicated to the lost soul of a poor girl who met her fate too soon in strange circumstances.
The area has thousands of people, but this small island is home to hundreds of terrifying dolls. Their severed limbs, decapitated heads, and blank eyes adorn trees.
Dolls are threatening, even in the bright light of midday, but in the dark, they are particularly disturbing.

Слайд 10The Bermuda Triangle
The Bermuda Triangle is a mythical section of

the Atlantic Ocean roughly bounded by Miami, Bermuda and Puerto

Rico where dozens of ships and airplanes have disappeared. Unexplained circumstances surround some of these accidents, including one in which the pilots of a squadron of U.S. Navy bombers became disoriented while flying over the area; the planes were never found. Other boats and planes have seemingly vanished from the area in good weather without even radioing distress messages. But although myriad fanciful theories have been proposed regarding the Bermuda Triangle, none of them prove that mysterious disappearances occur more frequently there than in other well-traveled sections of the ocean. In fact, people navigate the area every day without incident.
