There are many places on our planet that are really hard or even impossible to get to. As a rule, these places are the most intriguing.
Bright Side collected 11 secret places around the world that are impossible to enter.
11. Secret Mormon Base, Utah, USA
Deep under Granite Rock, there is a depository built by the Mormons. By hearsay, they store their precious relics there. Only the highest members of their church can enter this place that is resistant even to a nuclear explosion.
10. Global Seed Vault, Svalbard, Norway
Svalbard Global Seed Vault opened in 2008 on the island of Spitzbergen. 250 million seed samples are stored there. It was created so that people can restore any plant. The island is a perfect place for storing seeds because there is practically no seismic activity and it is high above sea level.
9. Niihau Island, Hawaii, USA
Hawaii is a beach paradise. However, this little island is impossible to enter. It was sold to a plant-owner family in 1863 and closed in 1915. It is still a guarded place.
8. HavenCo, Sealand
The data center was opened in 2000 in Sealand. Its owner, HavenCo, thought this was how they could get around a British law. It closed in 2008 but was opened again in 2013.
7. "Pionen" Bunker, Stockholm, Sweden
The data centers of Bahnhof are situated in a cave 100 feet underground. This bunker was built in 1943 as a fallout shelter. There are live plants, artificial waterfalls, and a huge aquarium inside. This is how the company creates a nice atmosphere for its employees.
6. ADX Florence Prison, Colorado, USA
The nickname of this prison is "Alcatraz of the Rockies." The cells there are made of stone, and even the bunk beds and sinks are made of concrete. There are laser traps everywhere inside, and the doors are controlled remotely. All the security officers of this prison can shoot to kill if they suspect an escape.
5. RAF Menwith Hill Base, Yorkshire, Great Britain
This place was built in 1954 for catching signals during the Cold War. It is unknown what is going on there now, but this is the biggest storage of intelligence data in the world.
4. "Greenbrier" Resort, Virginia, USA
It seems impossible to see a resort in such a list. In fact, this place is the most secure resortin the world, accessible only to US government agents. There is also a fallout shelter here.
3. Vatican Secret Archives
This is considered to be the most secret library in the world. All the documents of the Popes have been stored here since the VII century. Only a research officer can enter the archives with special permission, which is extremely difficult to obtain.
2. Bold Lane Car Park, Derbyshire, Great Britain
This car park is one of the safest places in the world. Drivers get special barcode-tickets that are synchronized with their parking space. Under each car is a movement sensor that runs the alarm in case someone moves the car without permission. There are 190 surveillance cameras in the facility.
1. Area 51, Nevada, USA
Area 51 is a special facility for experimental flight vehicle construction. It is impossible to approach the base from the ground or air. It means that no flight can be performed above this territory. The existence of this place was revealed reluctantly, which gave birth to many conspiracy theories.
