Top 10 Bizarre Borders You Won't Believe Exist
Today we're going to be looking at the 10 most bizarre waters you won't believe exist when we think of a country's border you probably imagine giant fences and walls and a lot of passport control but this is not the same in some parts of the world from zip wire borders to country ball is located in cafes you won't believe these spoilers actually exist.
10-China and Mongolia
This border isn't the most impressive on this list but it is by far the funniest and it's one border that everyone who passes through must get a photo with across the border or to dinosaurs kissing each other the dinosaurs are so reports and they really are showing each other some love but the question is why on earth these statues even here well there are two reasons to this first of is to advertise something called dinosaurs fairyland which is a science or amusement park in a nearby town so this is kind of like one big advertisement which brings in a lot of money for the local economy and also the area wanted to show off that they're a fossil hotspot put all of those reasons together and you get this one hilarious border however, it seems to the border gets a lot more attention than dinosaur fairy land itself but let's be honest how could you not stop and check out two dinosaurs making out the cool thing about this border is the dinosaurs are the scale of how big they really were all those years ago we all know China used to walter border mongolia and scare Mun coiling and warriors off but I think these giant dinosaurs would have done the trick when it comes to scaring people off.
9-Spain and Portugal
Now a lot of the time borders are pretty boring right there's simply a fence that lets people in and out of a place well at this border between Spain and Portugal there are no fences at all instead there's a river but there's no bridge going over it so you may be wondering how do you get from Spain to Portugal well you have to take something more awesome than a car or a boat that is a zip wire this has got to be the most fun and funny border ever however I'm guessing anyone with a fear of heights would simply have to find another border the zip wire goes 250 miles an hour and as a toll of only 12 dollars and the zip wire also sets you back in time by one hour thanks to the timezone difference he simply show the zip wire attendant your passport and away zip the journeys only around 60 seconds long and the wait isn't long either that is a lot better than a nasty traffic jam on the highway also I don't think that most borders such an awesome view unfortunately though this is if I can only take you to Portugal if you want to get back to Spain you'd need to take a boat over a different border.
8-Belgium and Netherlands
Certain borders are very tight and it wouldn't be uncommon to see armed guards and barbed wire fences and even if a border doesn't have those things no border in the world would be described as relaxed right well this border between Germany and the Netherlands literally goes through a cafe you can enter this cafe in the Netherlands and leave in Belgium and vice-versa while most borders are very uptight and official you can literally have an espresso on this border there are no fences here at all and instead there's just two stone slabs once this NL for Netherlands and the other B for Belgium the cafe is called den angle and it's actually rated 5 stars the town the border Liezel is called ball norsu and it's nicknamed the most complicated border town in the world it may also be complicated for the cafe but thanks to this weird border the cafes now internationally famous and this is now the most visited place in the entire town as you pretty much have to go to this cafe if you want to check out the cool border this border sure is a lot more welcoming than the us-mexico border.
7-Switzerland and Italy
One word that wouldn't be used to describe borders are nice they're often very functional government buildings and are not usually very interesting and of course they're known for their tight security and unsightly barbed wire fences and so on well if you go to the border of Switzerland and Italy you may not even realize there's a border there a few sticks and a thin orange string maps out the borders here the point of these are not to stop people traveling in and out of the countries but to simply make sure people know where they are technically you're not supposed to cross the border here ask there's no passport control but I guess that fact also makes the place where literally anyone can cross the border the borders very plain and picturesque and looks like a postcard and instead of a giant water offence there's something that could easily be confused for a ski barrier in fact I think even a ski slope barrier is more secure than this border we all know that Switzerland is very peaceful and both countries are in the EU so citizens to travel freely without visas or anything like that would you ever want to check out this awesome and peaceful border if you do then be warned it's very hard to get there but if you do you'll have no trouble getting into Italy or Switzerland.
6-Thailand,Laos and Myanmar
The nickname of this border that borders these three countries is called the golden triangle this is because the countries all back onto each other making a triangle shape you must have heard of being able to be in six at once at the four corners monument in the USA but here you can be in three countries at once which is much more impressive to practi a friends about this border is buy some water on a river and is made on one large painted wooden triangle each country's painted a different color with Thailand being yellow Laius being red and Miami being green the cool thing about this border being in a triangular shape is that you can stand in the middle of this thing and be in three countries at once and it can also be used as a super basic map as it literally points you in the direction of each country this place is a popular tourist hotspot and the only place on earth where you can be in more than two countries at any given time and in case you're wondering why they call this triangle the Golden Triangle it's not to do with gold instead it's because of the water in the river the river is pretty dirty making the water a brown gold color but I guess the brown triangle then really have the same ring to it.
5-Mexico and USA
So a lot of you guys watching probably have seen this border you may assume the borders very boring and harsh with large fences and guards everywhere but remember that's only on the main points of entry one area of the border is actually very peaceful and friendly at one part of the border locals from Mexico in the u.s. played a game of volleyball over the fence together and that's an electric fence so this is like extreme volleyball but even so this is a very awesome and powerful photo especially as if there seems to be a lot of tension between Mexico and the US when it comes to borders so it's great to see citizens coming together apparently, this is a common thing that these people and others do and local kids from both Mexico and the u.s. enjoy playing this game over the border the reason they can do this is because of the Security's more lacs sure there are still guards and fences by the series not near any highways but instead next two towns on both sides where do you ever want to have a game of border volleyball if the u .s. ends up building that wall I hope they make it low enough so these guys can still play volleyball.
4-Canada and USA
So we've seen a border go through a cafe which made things inconvenient to them well if you thought that was inconvenient then check out this border between Canada and the USA this border goes through an entire town making life very difficult for the residents the town is called Derby Line and the border goes have right through the buildings of this town many homes and businesses have metal lines going through them to show you the border and there's even a street in the town with a sign saying don't drive on to the USA on this street there are no border patrol here however and there are no fences either this means you can literally stand in two countries at once which is pretty cool so if the u.s. and North Korea decide to go at one another you can safely use this route to escape to Canada just imagine wanting to visit your neighbor but having to go into another country to do it seriously some people here live in the same town but in a different country how mail arrives to the right places in this area is a mystery to me.
3-Poland and Ukraine
So we've seen the China and Mongolia border which features two dinosaurs kissing well that's not the only border that features animals the border between Poland and Ukraine are decorated with two giant fish the fish are made in the fields around the border kind of like how a crop circle is made the fish weren't made by aliens though but by an artist named Jairus Lord Cassie era from Poland they wanted to sow the seeds of unity between Poland and Ukraine and looks like they've done this pretty well it looks simple from above but these fish are actually made of over 23 different types of plants you may think the fish look kind of wacky and the board of our people love them and they spread a good message of unity and the artist who created this has even won awards for their work sadly these can't be seen if you're just driving by but if you happen to be passing over the Poland Ukraine border in a helicopter as you do then check out these border fish where general border did you prefer the dinosaurs or these fish.
2-Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean
Now this is not a border between countries but instead between oceans where the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean makes it looks photoshopped but it's 100% real some people think that the oceans water won't mix, however, this is not the case the Glacial water meeting the shores of the Gulf of Alaska makes an offer water density and temperature so it's because the Atlantic Ocean has glacial water and the Pacific Ocean has offshore water these waters do not blend together which makes this amazing divided between two seas the Glacial water coming from the Atlantic is green color because of the salinity of the water and the offshore water coming from the Pacific Ocean is a dark blue this is because of the salinity and the water density in the area there's a lot of science to this border but it looks amazing even a boat going across these waters won't mix them and some have even mistaken it for an oil spill as it seems impossible that it could be so different in one area like the fish border this one of course will expel it from above but even so this board is one of the most amazing and most unexplained in the world as there are so many false theories about this border.
1-Norway and Sweden
This has been dubbed the most beautiful border in the world we all know that a lot of what makes up the countries Norway and Sweden are snowy forests well this doesn't mean they didn't want to show off their border the here has no security or fence and is in the middle of nowhere what they did to create the border was cut down a line of trees this makes an amazing view from the top of the mountains that you can see exactly where they've cut to maintain a perfect line without trees the reason why they've done this is because people travelling wouldn't know whether they were in Norway or Sweden otherwise it looks like it's in the middle of nowhere but believe it or not some people actually use this route to get to the two countries this border is amazing as it seems totally symbolic on the surface but really it serves a natural purpose and it's one of the most heavily photographed borders in Europe.
