Owing to its local legends, the island has successfully drawn the attention of people from all over the world. The island has hundreds of eerie-looking dolls and parts of them strung up in trees. As the story goes, the man living on the island was unable to save a drowning woman. However, he continued to hear her screams even after her death. He then started hanging dolls to ward off the spirit. This island is quite a catch for the brave hearts.
2. Floating islands of Lake Titicaca: Situated in Peru, the floating islands are Lake Titicaca's top attraction and a must-visit destination for tourists. Unlike other islands, this one is a man-made island made of Totora reeds, mats, and ropes. The local tribes use these artificial islands to settle territory related disputes with other tribes.
3. Rapa Nui Island: The Rapa Nui Island near Chile is said to have at least 887 strange statues that have the height of a three-storey building.
