A massive Boeing 737 discovered in a field in Bali has left people scratching their heads.
People can’t help but scratch their heads and come up with conspiracies to try and explain the oddest discovery in a Bali.
Funnily enough no one actually knows how the massive Boeing 737 aircraft actually ended up where it is, but it has continued to spark the interest of locals and tourists.
It isn’t clear where the plane was meant to be flying to or whether it could still be fit for the air.
The aircraft hasn’t been touched since it landed in the Limestone Quarry near the Raya Nusa Dua Selatan Highway.
Plenty of theories have circulated as to how the plane got there, as is often the case with the bizarre and unexplained.
The locals certainly have their own theories with many believing it was bought by a wealthy businessman.
Legend has it that he wanted to turn it into a restaurant, but ran out of funds before he could finish, and so he simply left the plane parked in the field. But this has never been confirmed by authorities.
While the defunct aircraft has piqued the interest of plenty of urban explorers over the years hoping to experience something a little different on their travels, unfortunately it is fenced off and only available to see from a viewpoint.
However, oddly enough, there is in fact another stranded Boeing 737 in Bali.
Located next to a Dunkin’ Donuts branch, the plane is believed to have been there since 2007, with rumors similarly suggesting it was once set to become a restaurant.
This second deserted plane was used as an events venue in 2018, and now remains as a fascinating fixture.
For those interested in visiting the first Boeing, Atlas Obscura’s Tony Dunnell offered up a few directions, saying it’s ‘easy enough to reach’ as long as you can ‘spot it from the road’.
He explained: “The view of the plane is obstructed from the highway, so you need to keep your eyes open, or you could easily miss it.
“When you come across a wall of sea containers on the side of the road, you are have arrived. You can see the plane by climbing up onto the containers that surround it.
“Or, for a better view, head slightly further down the road where you’ll find a path that leads up above the plane. You’ll have to pay a small fee to enter, as the plane is on private property.”
