The depths of our oceans have always intrigued us. With every voyage, we go deeper in search of answers. The deeper we go, the more questions we ask. There are locations hidden in the oceans that change our view of the entire world. Inside them we encounter nightmarish beasts and long-lost towns telling us tales about the past civilisations. Perhaps all of our oceans are one big combination of enigmas. There is one well-known place by many yet still unknown to us. This place is known as the “Modern Day Atlantis”.
When Atlantis was first described by Plato, many assumed that his definition was the only true one, but modern-day research says otherwise. MDA is in fact a city but not made in a Greek-like style. Instead, it's made out of a bunch of similar buildings that look similar to the ones of 2000s Indonesia. This is supported by the fact that power lines and electricity exist in the location, with the addition of Indonesian signs. The buildings themselves are unusual in a way that their layout doesn't really make sense. Staircases lead to nowhere, doors are way smaller than they should be and furniture can be found on the ceilings. This is not a place for humans to live, which sparked discussion among the historians and archaeologists alike. They wondered if this place is truly the Atlantis they are looking for. Some sparked multiple theories about the possibility that the MDA could've changed its shape over time, while others refuse to believe in any of their talks. At the end of the day the place was given the name Modern Day Atlantis tl satisfy everyone.
MDA has no stable location, but it rather switches its position every so often. Entering it is easy; most of the time it is not located that deep beneath the surface of the ocean. Simple swim-diving equipment and a helpful team are the only things you need. However, once inside, the experience becomes a labyrinth of wonders and challenges, testing both humans' resolve and curiosity. Many who have ventured into MDA describe it as a surreal realm, filled with breathtaking sights that seem to defy the very laws of nature. This opinion is true; this place is filled with that kind of species. Let's start with the fact that the nature here is not the same as the one in the rest of the ocean. It directly replicates the one we can find on the ground. To be more specific, the nature resembles that of Indonesia. We didn't manage to find out how it even survives in this kind of environment; it is simply built differently. Plants inside the MDA grow and act exactly like the ones on the ground, with the difference being that they go with the flow under water.
