​What location on Earth feels the closest to being on an alien planet?

For me it’s maybe the underground cenote I explored in Cancun? Being able to walk through an underground river with the craziest rock formations that’s otherwise pitch black without our flashlights… crazy experience

Mt. Bandadagsaan Mossy Forest, Davao de Oro

This is literally Earth’s own alien world! Trees draped head-to-toe in glowing emerald moss, ferns like giant green hands, mist that swirls soft and thick, and silence that feels otherworldly—no wonder it’s called the Avatar Forest of the Philippines. Every step feels like stepping onto a planet untouched by time, where the whole landscape shimmers in shades of green you won’t find anywhere else. It’s not just a forest… it’s nature’s own fairy-tale dimension right here on Earth
