Sometimes they help you to understand yourself deeper or to imbue with positive energy. Sometimes something scientifically inexplicable happens there. Do you want to know the names of these places?
Kochkomozero
This abandoned settlement is famous for its special energy. However, there are still several inhabited houses. But all of them are residential only in the summer, when the owners come from the cities. The rest of the time it is empty, only the wind whistles and the shutters are slamming … And here there is always a feeling of someone's invisible presence. Even when there is no one near at all.
They say that this place allows you to get to know and understand yourself better. Here, new, unexpected thoughts may come to mind.
Vottovaara
It is worth coming here for people suffering from insomnia. They say there were such cases: a person lay down on a warm boulder and suddenly fell asleep. There are other anomalies here. They talk about the lost: people can wander between huge stones all day. By evening it turns out that all this time they have been circling around their own tent.
In a word, the stones are special here. Some believe that these boulders can share their power with a person. A mysterious cross is engraved on one of the stones.
How did these stones get here? Scientists have been arguing about this until then. Someone claims that this pile of boulders is the work of human hands. Others believe it is the result of a glacier or earthquake.
Even if you do not believe in the supernatural, still visit here. The amazing landscape will forever remain in your heart.
Kurkiyiki
This area is also famous for its special stones. In the deep thicket of the forest, there is a boulder that heals from all ailments. This is what the legend says. It is located at the very top of the mountain.
There is also another energetically strong boulder, which is usually visited by women. This stone grants wishes. It is believed that it helps primarily the fair sex. Especially often women come here who have not been able to get pregnant for a long time. They say that their desire to become a mother is often fulfilled.
Koyonsaari
The island is covered with forest, and a mountain rises above the tops of the trees. Locals call it Leshy Mountain. They say that at its top you can get a powerful charge of positive energy. How will this be expressed? Perhaps some bright idea will come to you. Or you just feel that life is beautiful.
Even if you do not believe in this, we still advise you to climb the mountain. The fact is that a stunning view opens up from its top!
Besov Nose
This cape is famous for the drawings on the rocks here. Images appeared here even before our era. It is interesting that they are located on horizontal surfaces, and not on vertical ones. That is, tourists see all these drawings under their feet.
Images can be divided into three groups:
- people;
- animals;
- mystical creatures.
Do you want to touch the mysteries of long-disappeared eras? Then be sure to visit here!
Paanajärvi
This is a national park. It is full of natural attractions. There are places of power among them. Among them is a lake. It bears the same name as the park. It is considered one of the deepest lakes on the planet. Its water is crystal clear.
Janisjärvi
The lake with this difficult to pronounce name is also one of the places of power. In the 70s of the XX century, glowing balls were seen over the water surface. Soviet scientists gave an explanation for this phenomenon: ball lightning. The hum that was heard during the appearance of the balloons was explained by the proximity of the hydroelectric power station. The glow of the water surface remained unexplained. As a result, scientists stated that the reason for the glow is in the features of the area.
Such explanations reassured the public. And the balls, they say, continue to periodically appear over the lake to this day.
Amazing - near! The mysteries and wonders of nature are sometimes not as far away as we think. A fairy tale can sometimes turn out to be a reality. Come to Karelia and see for yourself!
