Underwater Church, Potosi, Venezuela

After 26 years under water, there was a 98 feet (30 m) drop in the water level of the reservoir due to a drought. The church, grave markers, the ruins of houses and the outline of the former town square have reemerged with the church entirely exposed, although only its facade remains. Some visitors have appeared as well, including Garcia who once worked at the church there who commented, "It brings me joy, but it also makes me sad to see the situation that we're in." The weather pattern El Niño is believed to be responsible for the severe drought afflicting the region.
