So vanished Atlantis kanuv for 1 night in the ocean depths. Meanwhile, a mysterious island is not the only one who suffered a sad fate of being flooded. 1300 years ago, 290,000 people inhabited the Chinese city of Lion City, located in the suburb of Chun'an County. Today town were flooded, writes Avivas.ru.
Chinese Atlantis was discovered in 2001 at the bottom of Lake Qiandao on depth of 40 meters. The value of the city is 62 football fields.
