Where was Atlantis?

Where is Atlantis? And how can I get there?

  • My psychologist recent declared me clinically insane and told me to cure myself I would have to swim to Atlantis, so I was wondering where Atlantis is and how I can get there?

  • Answer:

    Atlantis Legendary sunken island in the Atlantic Ocean west of Gibraltar. The main sources for the legend are two of Plato's dialogues, Timaeus and Critias. According to Plato, Atlantis had a rich civilization, and its princes made many conquests in the Mediterranean before earthquakes destroyed the island and it was swallowed up by the sea. Plato also supplied a history of its ideal commonwealth, and Atlantis is sometimes imagined as a utopia. The legend may have originated with the eruption с 1500 BC of a volcano on Thíra, which was so powerful that it gave rise to earthquakes and tidal waves. © 2005 Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc.

It is a mythical continent that "sank" under the ocean. It does not exist so you cannot get there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantis
