It is one of the most mysterious in the world..

Every now and then something completely bizarre appears on the internet.  What in the heck is this island?  You likely have not heard of it or would know how to pronounce its name.  The mystery of the fort at Tere Kol lake has never been solved.  Here is a brief intro about the video showing this mysterious phenomenon:

Por-Bajin is a mysterious island in Siberia – no one knows why it is there or who really built it.

A mysterious island containing a fortress or some sort of prison out in the middle of absolutely nowhere has been discovered in the deepest lake high in the remote mountains of Siberia.

Vladmir Putin has visited the site and said, quote “I have been to many places, I Have seen many things, but I have never seen anything of this kind.”

One of the commenters on the video Chris doesn’t think this is weird:

This isn’t weird if you look at it in the context of history. Back in the day, I believe a tribal group of people called “Tu jue” (might be confusing this with “xiong nu”), were terrorizing China, and it wasn’t until I believe the Han Dynasty that drove them out all the way westward. The people driven out remained silent for many centuries, until suddenly, the Ottoman Turks suddenly sprouted out and rose to power, using much of the sample style of weapons and tactics, that dominated European history. This place is just a relic of them trying to rebuild their society after being driven out of the Han Empire. Just because Siberia is in Russia, doesn’t mean that back in the day people couldn’t just walk over there. Yeah, it is buried in the middle of nowhere, but that is because of time. For all we know, that area could have been rich with winter animals for people to hunt and survive.

Do you have any opinions on this unusual place?  Feel free to comment.

We hope you enjoy this video.
