City of the Caesers

The hunt for mythical cities has been going on for ages, especially with the amount of mythical cities 
that have come and gone without any hint of their existence but the stories told about them. The City of Caesers, also named "La Ciudad de los Cesares", is another one on the list of mythical cities.
        
  According to the legend, this city is located somewhere between what is now Chile and Argentina, specifically Patagonia. It also hits the list of "cities of gold"😉 as it was known to be rich in gold and diamonds. Furthermore, its inhabitants are controversial in description, the range varies from European-features to giants. This city was very much believed to be true in the 16th Century, but not today.
      
The first reference to the city goes back to 1528, from the Spanish man named Francisco Ceasar who went on an expedition in Argentina and stumbled upon the city there.  However, there are many variations of the story and it is hard to point out which one is true. Nevertheless, this famous mythical city is said to have been a ghost city that appears at certain moments then disappears again. Only those who manage to stumble upon it, witness the great fortune that it holds.

     
  Nonetheless, further search in this century has been conducted and no result of such city has ever been found. However, it is important to highlight that this enchanting city is also referred to as "the Wandering city", therefore it may have a tendency to disappear, if you believe in such thing of course.

Vampires: Are they really "Real"?

Image
Vampires are one of the most popular mythical creatures ever known. Thanks to "Dracula", people everywhere in the world believe they exist along with all the stories that tag along. But do they really  exist? The myths and legends of vampires started a long time ago. In Europe, when diseases like Tuberculosis were so fatal and before medicine had reached such a high level, when an epidemic came, people would go down like flies. No one would know why such diseases went viral so fast and how. That is when the myths started, stories go that if a person has just died of an epidemic, you had to dig up their grave and if their heart is still fresh, for fear of vampirism, you had to tear it out and burn the corpse. The most popular one of course is the story of "Dracula" of Romania, a fictional character who apparently used to live on blood and just over all a supernatural creature. That is what the novel says,  but have you ever considered where the story o

"Ningen" mythical sea creature: real or make-believe?

Image
Urban myths and legends do not only happen on land; the great depths of the oceans carry far more than those ever known to mankind. One of the most mystic and bizarre urban legends is one about a  Ningen, a sea creature that, given its description, looks like humans. This mythical creature first made appearance in the 1990s, in Japan, when an individual of a "government whale research vessel" posted about it. According to the research, this creature rose up from the depths of the ocean at night for very few moments then submerged again.  The description of it goes something like this: 20-30 meters long, half human-like half mermaid-like creature, with legs and hands that have all five fingers. Also, very smooth skin.   In addition, according to the Japanese people, who are pretty much sure about seeing it, it  only appears at night specifically at 3 a.m. then disappears again, which makes it even harder to capture images of it. After that article, images
