Formed by the process of different mineral deposits over millions of years it's clear to see why this is one of the most naturally colourful places on earth and well deserving of the name 'rainbow mountains.'

The Naica Mine, also known as 'the cave of crystals' is currently operational, mining lead, zinc and silver. It gets its otherworldly appearance from the giant crystals formed by the mineral selenite.

Nope, you're not looking at a portal into another world, you're actually looking at the largest hot spring in the United States located in Yellowstone National Park. The colours you see are the result of microorganisms forming at the edge of the spring due to its mineral rich water.

Iceland is a country well known for its striking and otherworldly landscapes and the Skaftafell Glacier is just one of its incredible sights. Located 205 miles east of Iceland's capital Reykjavik this is the largest glacier outside of the polar region.

Native to the Socotra archipelago in the Indian Ocean these alien looking trees earn there name 'Dragonblood' from the red sap that they produce.

Looking like an abstract work of art or surrealist painting the painted dunes of Lassen Volcanic National Park are formed from the oxidation of volcanic ash that has shaped the landscape over millions of years.

16. Glowworm Cave located on the North Island of New Zealand



Glowworm Cave also known as "Glowworm Grotto" gets its surreal and otherworldly appearance thanks to thousands of tiny glow worms that line the caves walls and ceilings.
