39 Places That Will Warp Your Perspective of Time
"Behind the Riga Town Hall building there is an enclosed narrow cobble-stoned street where one can find small souvenir and flower shops and an old oak tree laying sideways on the ground. This semi-fossilized old oak tree was found during the excavation works and was preserved. Near the oak tree is a small plaque that reads: “OAK TRUNK: Found during excavation work for Riga new Town Hall. It grew on the shore of Daugava 3500 years ago, at about the time when Pharaoh Tutankhamen was the ruler of Egypt.”" - ATLAS_OBSCURA
