Underground cities mistery

Derinkuyu
This ancient Turkish city could house more than 50 thousand people, reached eleven stories below ground, and was built in the 7th or 8th century by Christians hiding from persecution. Turkey is full of underground cities, in part because the volcanic rock in the region is easy to carve out.

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, and earned the nickname "Shanghai Tunnels" because unwary sailors were often "shanghaied" drugged while drinking, only to find themselves aboard a ship the next day, where they had to work until they hit another port.

Mistery of miyake

Devil sea Also known as Dragon's Triangle because of ancient legends suggesting dragons living off the coast of Japan. There has been a lot of suspicious activity along this region like  numerous disappearances of ships and planes. In 1952, the Japanese Government sent an investigation team of 31 members. Sadly, the whole team including the ship disappeared in the sea, never to be seen again. Another story tells of Kublai Khan's disastrous attempts to invade Japan by crossing the Devil's Sea, losing at least 40 000 men in the process. Other speculations range from aliens, to gates to parallel universes, high volcanic activity leading to disappearances and even to Atlantis.

Raamar bridge(adam's) Recently discovered bridge,old name Ramar bridge currently named as Adam's Bridge and made of a chain of shoals, 30 km long, in the Palk Straits between India and Sri Lanka, reveals a mystery behind it. The bridge's unique curvature and composition by age reveals that it is man-made. Legend as well as Archeological studies reveal that the first signs of human inhabitants in Sri Lanka date back to the primitive age, about 1,750,000 years ago and the bridge's age is also almost equivalent.  This information is a crucial aspect for an insight into the mysterious legend called Ramayana, which was supposed to have taken place in tredha yuga (more than 1,700,000 years ago). This bridge starts as a chain of shoals from the Dhanushkodi tip of India’s Pamban Island and ends at Sri Lanka’s Mannar Island.  Water between India and Sri Lanka is only 3 to 30 feet (1 to 10 meter) deep.
