The Hanging Pillar At Lepakshi, Andhra Pradesh

The beautiful 16th-century Veerabhadra Temple, also known as the Lepakshi Temple, is located in the small historic village of Lepakshi in the Anantapur district of Andhra Pradesh, India, about 15 km east of Hindupuram and 120 km north of Bangalore. Built in the typical style of Vijayanagara architecture, the temple has many elaborate sculptures of gods, goddesses, dancers and musicians, as well as Mahabharata, Ramayana and Prana.

These are the 24ft x 14ft frescoes of Veerabhadra, a fiery god created by Lord Shiva, on the ceiling, making them the largest frescoes of the only person in India. In front of the temple is a large Nandhi (bull), the mountain of Lord Shiva, carved from a single stone block and is said to be one of the largest in the world. The Veerabhadra Temple is famous for another wonder of engineering. Some of the 70 stone pillars hang from the ceiling. The base of the pillar barely touches the ground, allowing you to move objects such as thin paper and cloth from side to side. When a British engineer tried to move the pillar to uncover the secret of support, the pillar was said to have slightly displaced from its original position.

The
Veerabhadra Temple was built by the brothers of Viranna and Virupanna, who were governors of the Vijayanagar Empire during the reign of King Achutaraya. .. The village of Lepakshi occupies an important place in the great Indian epic Ramayana. Legend has it that the bird Jatayu, injured by King Ravana of Lanka, fell after a futile battle with the king who kidnapped Sita, the wife of King Rama of Ayodhya. When Lama arrived at the place, he saw the bird and sympathetically said “Le Paxi”. This means “rise, bird” in Telugu.

Was outsourced. Then, in early 2006, after media reports reported the suggestion that it was an extraterrestrial cell proposed by Godfrey Louis and Santosh Kumar at Mahatma Gandhi University in Kottayam, the colored rain of Kerala suddenly hit the world. Attracted the attention of the inside.

Kottayam district in Kerala, where the most heavy red rain fell
The colored rains in Kerala first fell on July 25, 2001 in the southern districts of Kottayam and Idukki. Some reports suggest that other rain colors were also seen. More red rains were reported in the next 10 days, then less frequently until the end of September.


According to locals, the first color of rain was followed by loud thunders and flashes, followed by a mass of trees that shed wrinkled gray “burnt” leaves. The disappearance and sudden formation of dead leaves and wells were also reported in the area at the same time.
The color of the rain is due to the red particles floating in the rainwater, and when it rains, the red rain can be dyed like blood. It usually descended into small areas of less than a few square kilometers, and was sometimes localized so that normal rain could fall within a few meters of red rain. The red rain usually lasted less than 20 minutes. First report
Immediately after the first red rain, scientists at the Center for Global Sciences (CESS) and the Institute for Tropical Botanical Gardens (TBGRI) determined that it was the particles that colored the rainwater, the media reported. .. , A type of spore. Then, in November 2001, CESS and TBGRI, on behalf of the Ministry of Science and Technology of the Government of India, succeeded in growing the rain in Kerala into algae that form the lichen of Trentepolia in the medium by algae spores. We have published a report that concludes that it has been colored. Genus. These algae have been found to be associated with tree lichens in the Changanacherry area. The
report also found that the rainwater was free of meteorites, volcanic or desert-origin dust, and that the color of the rainwater was not due to dissolved gases or pollutants. The report suggested that heavy rains in Kerala in the weeks leading up to the red rain may have caused widespread growth of the lichens that occurred.

Kongka La Pass: UFO base in Himalayas?

Kongka La Pass; When did we ever been disappointed with alien stories? Irrespective of the vague evidence on the existence of aliens in the human world we never stopped researching it. And we, somewhat have succeeded in assembling some significant proof of the existence of aliens. Having said that, have you heard of “Kongka la pass”? Im sure you must have, for those of you who dont have the slightest clue why did I bring Kongka la pass out of nowhere, this article will help you find out the reason “why”?!


Kong ka la
Kongka La pass situated in the Himalayas also named as no mans land in Ladakh.The southwest region of the Kongka La pass falls in Ladakh, India, whereas the northeastern part of Kongka La passes falls in China known as the Aksai Chin region. The incident of the 1959 Kongka pass later introduced the SinoIndian War in 1962. Though land doesnt being patrolled by either the countrys men, both keep an eye on the area from a distance. Apart from the SinoIndian war, the land is famous for its UFO sightings. People from both sides, India and China, witnessed the UFOs landing in the Kongka La pass area, it is also being said to be the Base of UFOs landing on Earth and not just a little landing site. The Kongka La passes UFO incident didnt gain much attention until the results of the Google Earth Imagery happened, which was enough to shook the world.
The google earth map for Kongka la pass revealed that the surrounding area of Kongka pass had buildings that looked much like a military base. But, if you search on Google Maps now, you won`t get any results. But it is highly unlikely for a company like Google, despite having all the other resources could suffer such technical fault or “glitch” for such a long time.
Involvement of the Indian Army
In 2012 there was this incident that made the vague existence of aliens more apparent by the participation of the Indian Army. Few men amongst the Indian army saw an object that looked like a piece of cloth, drifting around the Pangong Lake, which is in the closed domain of the line of control.


They immediately brought their equipment to figure out what the object was but registered nothing.
To make the situation eerier, despite the object being visible to the naked eye, it went undetected in their systems; even the spectrum analyzer could detect nothing which led to the conclusion that the purpose was not made up of metal. To this date, no one could assemble any facts regarding what happened or what the object was. The Indian Army tried using a drone to find out much about the unidentified object, but the drone lost its sight of the purpose as soon as it reached its altitude limit.
Another incident that happened was, when Hindu pilgrims on their way to Mount Kailash, reportedly seen objects flying in the air
It was triangular that glows due to phosphorescence (light discharged by a substance without ignition).

Magnetic Hill in Leh : A Zero Gravity Place of India

Who isnt fascinated by the miracles of nature? If you too love the idea of them and wish to experience some of natures best wonders, Magnetic Hill in India would be the right choice for your next adventure. This place is especially recommended for those who are planning a trip to Leh Ladakh.


So, whats so special about this place? Well, the Magnetic Hill in Leh is famous for its gravitydefying occurrence. As a natural phenomenon, gravity draws things to the earth. In other words, it will fall when released. However, at this epic destination, releasing the object appears to move uphill. what is the explanation for this? Magnetic Hill is located somewhere along the Leh Kargil Srinagar National Highway in the Trans-Himalayan region at an altitude of 14,000 feet. The Sindhu River runs to the east of the hill, making it a great spot to take pictures. All Leela Duck travelers agree that Magnetic Hill is one of the best places in Leela Duck. The distance from Leh to Magnetic Hill is about 30km, and the yellow sign that says "Phenomenon against gravity" is a landmark. There is a box marked in white on the street where you can park your car. I parked vaguely in the marked area and the car started at nearly 20km / h. The road on which vehicles travel is called a magnet road. Magnetic Hill, in Ladakh, India, is a brother of Mount Aragats in Armenia. Mount Aragats, like Magnetic Hill, appears to rise when it is actually descending.

This mysterious phenomenon has received a great deal of attention and attracts tourists every month seeking an explanation for its occurrence. Locals also have an interesting story about India's magnetic hills, which makes this phenomenon even more compelling. Theories Behind the Phenomenon There are a number of theories surrounding the Magnetic Hill in India. Some of them hold logic and some are stories told by those who live there. However, all these are theories and we dont know for sure if they are true.


The Stories from Locals
Residents believe this road to be a literal stairway to heaven. Its their belief that the road was once used to send the doers of good deeds orkarma` to heaven. Those who missed their karma never found a way to the land above. Aside from that theory, here are two compelling theories that can solve the mystery of Indian magnetic leeches and their ascending motion:
Magnetic Force Theory.
The most popular but unproven theory is that the mound emits a strong magnetic force from the inside, attracting nearby vehicles. It is also said that Indian Air Force fighters have excluded routes around Leh’s Magnetic Hill from the route due to the strong magnetic force in the area.

The Jarawas, indigenous people of the Andaman Islands in India

According to scholar George Weber, the Jarawas are pygmy Negritos living in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands of India, “representing the rest of the population representing the earliest migration of modern Homo sapiens from Africa.”

This Paleolithic tribe, which still lives on the stone age hunter-gatherer lifestyle, has a total of about 450 members. The tribe is one of four tribal communities (Great Andamanese, Onge, and Sentinelese) living in the area and has long resisted contact with modern society. Unlike the Sentinelese, who refused to contact violently, the Jarawas-wielding bow and arrow first made peaceful contact with the Indian government in 1997. Threat to the Jarawas.While it is common to dance half-naked women, poachers also seduce young tribal women with food, alcohol and meat for physical harm and sexual exploitation. Government-approved “contact” has led to the spread of alcohol and smoking addiction and illness (tribes lack immunity in modern humans), and COVID 19 is now one of their greatest threats. Additionally, a growing number of settlers is encroaching on tribal land. With one Jarawa for every 1,000 settlers, the wealthier settlers tend to deplete tribal land of resources.


But the most threatening thing to the Jarawa tribe today is “mainstreaming.” Mainstreaming refers to the policy of pushing a tribe to join the country`s dominant modern society. This most notably strips the tribe of its selfsufficiency and identity, leaving them struggling at the margins of society. The Borgen Project spoke with Yash Meghwal, the spokesperson of Tribal Army, a leading organization in India that has been fighting against tribal injustice. According to hunter-gatherer Megwar, people of tribes like the Jarawas “cannot survive in a market economy.” He elaborated on this, stating that “to move up the ranks of society requires proper education and then the right business or employment opportunities,” the government could not provide to the tribes.
Latest Threats: Human Safari
After the construction of the Andaman Highway, exchanges with modern society deepened. The road passed through the Jarawas protected forests and brought in many refugee settlers. Tour operators are currently promoting a “human safari” experience along this path. This not only exacerbates the spread of illness due to abuse, addiction, and coping with modern humans. It also encourages the treatment of tribes as if they are zoo animals. This cultivates the dehumanization of tribal people. As Meghwal put it, “we are failing if our citizens are equated with wild animals.” Human safaris exist to profit from the poor, powerless tribal population. Thus, the tourism industry has emerged at the expense of their privacy, dignity, health and human rights.
When referring to the road, Meghwal said that “the state is only interested in making new roads as infrastructure. Modern society does not care about ecological and ecological balance. Their focus is on extraction from tribal lands. “

Bhangarh: the most haunted fort in India

With a face and aura that looks straight from the horror story, Banger Fort has long been a hot topic of debate. Many call it dangerous, but many others call it a ghost. However, the facts surrounded by legends and mysteries remain, and the fort is one of the best places to visit in Rajasthan.
Many people cite the Bangualh Fort, locally known as Bangualh ka Kila, as the most haunted place in India. Few people are discussing this claim. But why did you give this 17th century fortress its nickname? What still leaves you feeling uneasy when talking about visiting that place? Why is it in such a desolate and abandoned state that it only adds eerieness to the entire history of Fort Bangar? Is Banger Fort really a ghost?
What is the history of Bangor Fort? The Indian Archaeological Research Agency (ASI) declared the Bangar Temple as a protected monument in 1951. However, the boundaries of the monument are not yet complete. There may be many reasons for the delay in the process, but it has certainly fuelled the story of Bhangarh Fort being haunted. Standing like an ominous sentry towards the entrance to the fort is a board by the ASI that forbids entry to the fort after hours.


What stands out is how they have mentioned these timings for Bhangarh Fort. Instead of a concrete number, the board forbids entry into the fort after sunset and before sunrise, which sounds a little mysterious at the very least. In short, no one is allowed to be inside Bhangarh Fort at night, and as soon as darkness falls, the fort is barred to visitors.


The history of Bangar Fortress tells us that this fortress was built by Bhagwant Dath for his younger brother Murdo Singh. But then the story seems to have been lost between pages of time and transformed by the chatter of rumors surrounding India’s most haunted places.
When you travel to this area, you’ll hear a lot of explanations about why ghosts appear at Fort Bangar, but there are two legends that seem to be the most popular. Unexplained incident
Without some real story in its name, it wouldn’t be known as India’s most haunted place. Of course, Bangor Fort is also surrounded by unfounded urban legends. The worst misfortunes are believed to strike those who dare to stay at Fort Bangor at night, and locals are happy to tell the story of the three brave demons who spent the night at the fort. They had flashlights, one of which fell into a well. As soon as he was rescued by his friend, they rushed to the hospital. However, along the way, all three were involved in an unusual accident that killed them all. There are several other similar stories surrounding the legend

Khardung La : the world’s highest motorable road in India

Certainly obvious and confirmed by all is that the road to Khardung La, located 5,359 m (17,582 ft) northeast of the Himalayas in India, appears to be falsely based on Guinness. Nevertheless, it is not the tallest road in the world.

World records, many misleading websites, and even traffic lights at the top of the mountain show that it is the tallest road in the world at 5,682 m (18,641 ft). Recent GPS measurements have shown that even this height is not realistic. The same country has a much higher pass, including Umulinla, a recently constructed road to what is known as the “top of the world” at 5,882 m (19,300 feet) above sea level in Jammu and Kashmir. The new mountain road to Kiura, an international mountain road on the border between India and China, reaches an altitude of 5,711 m (18,736 feet). But the real “monster” in the region may be the road leading to Mount Chamkan at 5,953 m (19,530 feet) in the disputed Aksai Chin region on the border between China and India. This is an old jeep truck that runs north and south along the Indian border. This area was unmanned and a conflict area, so it was purely an army. At the Sino-Indian border, the gravel road ends at the top of Kunyamira at an altitude of 5,844 m (19,173 ft) above sea level. At the same boundary, a dirt road leads to the summit of Kungzhag La, which is the summit of 5,780 m (18,963 feet) above sea level. And a new dirt road built near the Sino-Indian War climbs Wenquan Daban (Daban Hot Springs) at 5,808 m (19,055 ft). In the conflict area between India and China, a new dirt road was built at the top of Lungalla, which reaches 5,795 m (19,012 ft) above sea level. A very dangerous road leads to Lungmar La on the Sino-Indian border at 5,776 m (18,950 ft) above sea level. There are roads on both sides of the border, but they do not meet at the top. There are many alpine military roads in the same area. One of them climbs Laghang La at an altitude of 5,838 m (19,153 ft). The new road, built in 2021, connects India and China via MedDRA and ends at 5,915 m (19,406 feet) above sea level.


In China, the situation is fundamentally changing. The lack of access to certain border areas means that guaranteeing the continuity of the country’s highest mountain roads is a mystery and we must rely on sources of questionable reliability. The newly constructed road climbs Kokusai Kiura to reach 5,711 m (18,736 ft) above sea level. Apparently, some vehicles may have scaled Radionla’s 5,830 m (19,127 ft), Chanlanla’s 5,793 m (19,005 ft), Keira’s 5,829 m (19,124 ft), also known as Kenra. Between Gyirong and Changguoxiang villages, or 5,774m (18,943 feet) in BodpoLa.
