Magnetic Road in Mirbat, Salalah
Magnetic Road in Mirbat, Salalah
A gravity hill, also
known as a magnetic hill and
sometimes a mystery hill, a mystery spot, or a gravity road, is a
place where the layout of the surrounding land produces the optical illusion that a
very slight downhill slope appears to be an uphill slope. Thus, a car left out
of gear will appear to be rolling uphill against gravity, such roads
are known as "false flats."
This road is situated between a mountain and the ocean. It’s called the Anti Gravity road or Magnetic Road. When we parked the car in neutral and disengaged the brakes, the car started climbing uphill. And on level road, it gained momentum continuously. There is said to be a magnetic pull that exists between the ocean and the mountain.
