There are legends about this mountain route. On the Internet, you can find dozens of videos with local anomalies. The water here does not flow down but upward. The car without a driver climbs up the mountain itself. All against all laws of physics! It’s hard to believe, but in some places, the car even accelerates.
“It’s just amazing. In addition to the fact that the car itself rolls upward, when I switched to the reverse gear, it did not go down until I hit the gas pedal! It’s just amazing,” driver Garnik Simonyan said.
Six months ago, the physicist Onik Khachatryan and his friend Armen Petrosyan discovered this anomalous zone. During the trip, young people noticed that they drive up the hills too easily. They shot a video and put it on the Internet.
“This phenomenon is associated with gravity. Gravity should be directed towards the Earth’s core, but there are distortions of gravity that we can observe here. This anomalous zone, I think, is connected with the distortion of the gravitational field,” physicist Onik Khachatryan thinks.
Here, the atmosphere becomes uncomfortable even for skeptics. The river flows up at an about 20-degree angle. Besides, after Onik had rolled a water bottle down the asphalt, it made a few rotations, stopped, and started to miraculously roll back up. Some people think that it is just an optical illusion, but now, no one can tell for sure.
Abnormal zones still pose a mystery for scientists. Now, the influence of such zones on human health is being actively investigated. One thing is clear, similar places like this, like a magnet, attract inquisitive people.

Does nobody in Armenia own a GPS?? Easily debunked with a GPS that would show true elevation between 2 points.
I solved it! There is a secret magnetic railway beneath the surface that inadvertently pulls/pushes metal-laden water and other metallic objects.
Someone needs to look at an elevation/relief map. What the eye perceives as uphill due to surrounding terrain is really downhill. There is no mystery at all. Just an illusion.
If someone solved then it should be published in which way you can prove it . Send to hrayr9898@gmail.com
This is not an illusion, actually it exists in other countries as well, check this article which is about Canadian regions with the same phenomenon:
http://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/earth/geophysics/missing-gravity.htm
The article has some explanations as well.

The only thing that doesn't make sense at the Aragats region, is how the river flows upwards, then where does it flow into? usually rivers flow into the sea or ocean, in this case it's going upward to nowhere...
Likewise, this absolve to enjoy option can also be helpful perhaps for seasoned people.
"Good post. I learn something new and challenging on sites I
stumbleupon everyday. It will always be helpful to read content from other authors and use a
little something from their web sites"
It makes sense, the Mount Aragats is close to 3 volcanos. Gravity pull started at the center of the earth , so it makes sense the gravity might be altered by the magma ocean traveling under the hill... ??♀️ it’s what I make sense of it. I would love to see more studies and how it affects people that live in surrounding areas.
