Mysteries and curiosities of New Zealand !!


If anyone asks you which country in the world is the most mysterious one, you probably would have a difficult choice to make. After all, you know about pyramids from Egypt, about mysterious stony monuments from South America, about the Great Wall of China and about all these mysteries that surround it, etc. But probably you never would imagine that miniature versions of mysteries from all these countries can also be found in New Zealand. And so, New Zealand has two small pyramids in the Coromandel, has ruins of a stony temple of the Machu Picchu style (like this one from Peru) in the Kaimanawa forests, has a miniature of the Great China Wall in Northland, has an explosion site which is even more spectacular than the famous 1908 explosion site from Tunguska in Central Siberia, and on top of all these puzzles it has also a lot of other mysteries which do not appear in other countries and which in New Zealand can be freely examined by all interested. So a popular image of New Zealand, that it is a country where almost everything is someone's monopole unaffordable to normal wallets, and where one can only see 1000 sheep per each citizen, is quite a misleading one. The problem is, however, that New Zealanders are strangely shy and humble when comes to the subject of mysteries present in their country. They do not brag about their mysteries. So in spite that New Zealand is actually full of mysteries, one needs to be very lucky to hear about them or to find a publication that describes any of them.
