Science fiction writer Eric von Däniken
was the inspiration behind the May 2003 opening of Mystery
Park in Interläken, Switzerland. The attraction resembles a
giant space station, the centrepiece of which is a 41-metre
high, globe-like tower, housing the Eric von Däniken
Foundation and offering views of the surrounding mountains.
There are seven themed pavilions and a circular glass
walkway that connects each structure. These take visitors
on a tour of the unexplained, from the Pyramids of Giza to
the Nazca lines in Peru to Stonehenge in the UK. For more
