You must admit that there is something mysterious and magical in caves and tunnels. Perhaps the darkness or the fact that mysterious tunnels lead into the very body of the Earth creates a special background of the mysticism of underground cities. They are invariably the subject of all adventure stories and exciting legends. Underground cities represent the unknown and relate to long-standing fears that live deep in the human subconscious.
Legends of underground cities, hidden secrets of our planet
There are people among us who claim to have direct knowledge or experience with these underground tunnels. They bring a lot of amazing statements: supposedly the underworld contains long-lost cities. These places are inhabited by developed civilizations – perhaps the descendants of the lost Atlantis. Others are alien home and base their flying saucers. There are those that are the basis for secret government facilities.
Governments, without a doubt, have top-secret military facilities deep in the mountains or hidden underground. And this is of course the least fantastic story about underground cities. At the same time, many stories go without photographs or any other facts, so decide for yourself how to relate to it. However, in any case, the legends are charming. Many legends of underground cities and mysterious tunnels come from the US territory of and here are some of them;
Mystery of the Grand Canyon
In the April 1909 edition of The Phoenix Gazette, an article was published titled Research in the Grand Canyon. According to the description, a man named G.E. Kinkaid during his expedition sponsored by the Smithsonian Institution in the Grand Canyon did amazing things. Among his findings are the following:
A giant chamber about 450 meters underground, from which dozens of passages lead “like wheel spokes”.
Several hundred rooms, some of which contain artifacts, such as weapons and copper instruments of this kind, which were never known in America.
A crypt containing mummies – all adult males wrapped in bark cloth.
A shrine with a kind of idol, like a Buddha, sitting cross-legged, with a lotus flower in each hand.
Stone tablets on which mysterious Egyptian hieroglyphs are carved.
The article also mentions the legend of the Hopi Indians, which states that their ancestors once lived in the underworld in the Grand Canyon.
Kramp Funeral Cave
In 1892, Frank Burns of the US Geological Survey reported that he had discovered strange coffins in Cramp Cave, Alabama. Each coffin was 3.5 meters long, 1.5 meters wide, and up to a meter deep. The lids were open on every empty coffin, as if waiting for their guests.
Samples were sent to the Smithsonian Institution for research. It was originally assumed that coffins could actually be simple troughs. However, alas, in the course of research, the institute somehow lost the artifacts.
California Underground Tunnel Network
In a fall 1985 issue of Search magazine, a senior but unnamed naval officer spoke about the opening of a huge network of tunnels beneath parts of the US west coast. He said that American nuclear submarines explored some of these tunnels. The military explored some accessible underground routes near the continental shelf and followed them inland for several hundred miles. Here are some of the highlights of this incredible discovery:
What is being voiced as a San Andreas fault is actually large cameras that are in the process of being destroyed.
The well-known US nuclear submarine got lost in one of the aisles, and was never heard of again. It must be said that two US nuclear submarines disappeared under mysterious circumstances – USS Thresher and USS Scorpion.
Some part of California actually “floats” across the ocean. When oil companies began pumping oil from under the city of Long Beach, it began to sink – it sank almost 10 meters before the pumping was stopped immediately.
Mysterious Tunnel World
A pair of California researchers discovered a round hole in the ground while searching for petroglyphs. They went down into the pit, which reached a horizontal corridor. A face was carved on one of the walls, from which water was pouring. Suddenly, water began to pour from other openings. Adventurers were forced to leave the tunnel. Later, both recalled that in this place they heard music.
In West Virginia, workers found several caves with strange hieroglyphics painted on the walls. According to them, they heard faint voices and something similar to mechanisms coming directly from behind the walls of the cave.
Two men looking for a guano bat (which is of some importance as fertilizer) at the foot of Mount Lassen, found a deep cave. They proceeded along the tunnel inward for a mile or two and noticed that the floor was smooth, as if it were used for the road.
In the end, they met three strange “people” who asked if they were “superficial people.” Then those who met drove them deeper into the cave on an aircraft with an electromagnetic drive. At the end of this strange walk, men were returned to the outside world of the planet.
Travelers Ferdinand Osendovsky and Nicholas Roerich argue that they discovered an underground society under Central Asia which they called agarta or agarti. They say that 20 million people live in it, and their civilization extends into all the underground passages. This extremely mysterious country gives life to highly spiritual people.
In another case, a caving group of 12, entered the ancient tunnel system in northern Arkansas and ran into the inhabitants of the underworld. While exploring the cave, researchers discovered a tunnel lit by greenish phosphorescence. No, they did not find underground cities, but they met a race of creatures 2.5 meters tall. Blue-skinned creatures with advanced technology, researchers said they are direct descendants of Noah!
