Thanks to extremely hot temperatures that typically go over 104 degrees Fahrenheit, the town's population has created an entire submerged world where you'll find everything from an underground bookstore to a subterranean church.

Its fascinating landscape was carved for years by miners who occupied the gem-rich area, and today it's home to the world's first internationally rated underground hotel.
