Metlaoui, Tunisia

Lac de Gafsa

Lac de Gafsa, also called 'Mysterious Lake', appeared unexpectedly in 2014 alongside Om Laryes Road, 25 kilometers from the town of Gafsa in Tunisia. The origin or formation of the lake is not clear. The most likely explanation is that a minor earthquake had ruptured the rock above the water table, sending millions of cubic meters of water up to the surface.
