Arizona mistery

Superstition Mountains
The legends and lore of the Superstition Mountains can be experienced at the Superstition Mountain Museum on the Apache Trail where artifacts of the Lost Dutchman are on display. 
As per the legend in 1800s, a German immigrant named Jacob Walts discovered a gold mine inside the mountains but did not discuss the whereabouts of that mine with anyone, until his deathbed, upon which he may or may not have told a single person the secret.
Although the mine has never been found, despite many expeditions.
It is believed that the spirits of people who've lost their lives in these expeditions, still haunt the mountains.
It is also believed that the mine is protected by creatures called Tuar-Tums ("Little People") that live below the mountains in caves and tunnels. Some Apaches believed that the entrance to hell is located in the mountains.

California mistery

Racetrack Playa How ordinary stones manage to "sail" over the surface of racetrack playa in Death Valley National Park is a mystery people have tried to solve since 1915, when a prospector and his wife noticed tracks that seemed to indicate that the stones had somehow traveled across the dry earth.

Many visitors still hope for a more mystical explanation.

Cheyenne Mountain Once home to NORAD, this underground city was built down Colorado's Cheyenne Mountain to hold thousands of people and withstand a nuclear attack. Though it was secure during the Cold War, advances in missile technology mean that it's no longer a sure bet when the nukes fall. So NORAD has been moved to a new location, and the city remains standing some people still live there but it may become a museum soon. Portland In Portland, Oregon on the west coast of the United States, there's a wide network of underground tunnels, former homes and businesses. The place was used almost entirely for bars before and during Prohibition,

The not clearly carved figures aren't a mystery:- Historians know that the clay army was created to defend China's first emperor in the after life. What is not known, however, is where exactly the emperor is buried or what treasures his burial chamber might contain. A pyramid shaped mausoleum(cemetry) is located about a mile to the northeast of where the terracotta army was discovered. However, no one has actually entered the mausoleum that holds Qin Shi Huang's remains. The first emperor's final resting place is the most opulent tomb ever constructed in China, according to ancient documents describing its construction. An underground palace, complete with a surrounding "kingdom," the mau
