This takes "walking on water" to an astonishingly real-life level.
In Italy's Lake Resia, near the borders of Austria and Switzerland, a lone bell tower shoots up from the perfect, blue-green water. It's the only visible remnant of Graun (Curon in Italian), a town that vanished underwater more than 60 years ago.
The town's residents protested, but they were no match for a power company's plans to join two natural lakes and create a giant artificial one. When the company finally got its way, the surrounding towns were blasted and flooded. Only Graun's bell tower was permitted to survive, as a historic site.
