15 Stunning Images That Show Why Each Country Is One-of-a-Kind

Descriptions

A personal egg-like sleeping pod seen in Japan allows you to travel on an overnight bus and stay in your own shell at the same time. Perfect choice for introverts. Tokyo-based bus company Willer Express introduced this feature in 2020. Each bus has 18 wide reclining leg and neck rests, foldable tables and holders for cups, bags, and smartphones, and of course a blanket.

But more importantly, each pod is equipped with an electrical outlet to charge all your devices. There are three consecutive seats. Can't wait to test this personal pod on your own. You can book them on the Willa line of reincarnation buses. Ticket prices vary from about $100.

And since we are going to Japan, don't be surprised to find this device in one of the fast food restaurants. It has been implemented in a sink to provide disinfectant for customers' smartphones while washing their hands. This system named Wash Wash is developed by the Japanese company WATA. All you have to do is place your gadget inside this small opening. Like cash in an ATM, it will disappear for a while. But against the odds your phone will actually come back to you safe and clean just remember to take it out in 30 seconds. But if you forget your phone in sync, there's a good chance no one will steal it Japan is famous for having the lowest crime rate. A Reddit user posted a touching story that proves this claim. Here is a photo of her shopping bag on the streets of Osaka. When he went back to look for it later that day, he found the bag lying next to a tree, untouched. Apparently, someone carefully placed it there so that the owner could pick up the lost items.

Isn't it adorable?

Another great feature of Japan is the spiral escalator. The Japanese company Mitsubishi is still the only manufacturer of these spiral staircases in the entire world. It is installed at the front entrance of Mitsubishi Electric in Azawa. The spiral escalators go up and down smoothly in a semicircle, while riders enjoy the panoramic view. But this is a fairly rare occurrence. There are only 91 of these stairs worldwide. Can you guess a country by looking at this picture? Australia, of course. This epic shot was done in a camping ground. These animals are not equipped to jump or move backwards due to their long legs and a large tail. This is one of the reasons why the kangaroo appears in the Australian coat of arms alongside the emu. No animal can easily go backwards. That is why they are chosen to symbolize a nation that is always moving forward.

And what does a Tasmanian lemon look like? No, they don't actually grow without skin. But local people take care of it. And they didn't even bother picking lemons from the tree. An internet user saw these guys in the garden and noticed that they only like lemon skin and leaves. This creates a great symbiosis because people usually use the inside of a lemon. And since we are walking in the forest, be aware of the golden hunting spider. Because they like this habitat. Adult hunting spiders have legspans that can measure up to six inches. These creepy guys are members of the Sporacidae family. They got this name for their speed and hunting method. But they have another title of giant crab spiders, because of their appearance and size. Although hunting spiders are venomous and their bites can be painful to humans, they usually do not require hospital treatment.

In Finland, you can make it a private sauna.

The gondola, the world's first sky sauna, began operations in 2016 Many tourists and locals have been enjoying this feature for years This tiny gondola lets you enjoy the warmth of a real sauna while riding 131 feet above the ground and taking in breathtaking views of Helsinki. After landing, bathers can relax in the Jacuzzi and shower afterwards. Of course, manufacturers had to get creative when it came to power sources in gondolas. As a result, they built a custom electric heater to provide continuous power. 

Did you know that kebab pizza is a national dish of Sweden?

Unsurprisingly, it is one of the most popular fast food dishes in the country. This pizza consists of kebabs, meat and other ingredients such as tomato sauce, cheese, onions, peppers and kebab sauce. Toppings may vary between restaurants, but in general, this dish combines both Italian and Turkish cuisine. It was invented by Middle Eastern immigrants in Sweden. But the original creator of kebab pizza is unknown, as well as the precise time of its invention. But it is believed to have appeared in the 1980s, when kebab and falafel restaurants began to open across Sweden. 

In some regions, it has become common to offer both pizza and kebabs And at some point, someone got a genius idea to mix it all up into one disgustingly delicious course. Welcome to the ganja shark, another exotic national dish called hackerol. It is a traditional Icelandic dish. Many people wonder why Icelanders eat it rotten, and the reason is quite simple otherwise, the Greenland shark is poisonous. If fresh, the fermentation process is rather long and complicated, but it helps to get rid of all the toxins. The traditional method begins by placing the shark in a shallow hole dug in the deep sand and the sight is absolutely stunning. This mound can be found near another peculiar feature of the Nazca Lines. Located in southern Peru, this group of geoglyphs was discovered carved into desert sand. Geoglyphs are basically large-scale drawings made in the ground by arranging stone lines. They had astronomical purposes and served as places of pilgrimage. The Nazca Lines cover an area of about 190 square miles and include about 70 animals and plants and over 300 geometric figures. Some of these are 1200 feet tall. This is why the figures are most visible from the air or from nearby hilltops.

Scientists believe the lines were drawn by the Nazca people who flourished between AD 1 and 700. And since we're talking Instagram friendly deserts, check it out. It is not a prehistoric monster. This is a sculpture called Mano de Cierto Desert Hand. In the middle of Chile's Atacama Desert, there is a massive iron and concrete base reaching into the sky. The sculpture is 36 feet tall and located 3600 feet above sea level. It is the work of Chilean sculptor Mario Irazabal. Inaugurated in 1992, the sculpture is known to symbolize the frailty of the human spirit and its way through our adversities. You can find it 46 miles south of the town of Ansofagosta.
