First off all awesome job Firaxis with all the new content and the upcoming ones, I'm loving it!

My question is, can the mythical wonders be an option instead being a part of the main game? It feels a bit silly for my taste but that's just me. What is your opinion about it guys?

cheers!

He's referring to stuff like the Fountain of Youth and Bermuda triangle, El Dorado and so on...
I see.
Answering the question:
They appear as any other wonder, there's no additional options to tick or particular map where they spawn.

About sillyness;
These wonders were also present in Civ5 (excluding Bermuda Triangle), so it's more like upkeeping the tradition rather than taking things from myths because they run out of ideas/places.
 
What do you mean by 'Mythical wonders" exactly?

Mythological Wonders is what Firaxis calls them:-

Mythological Natural Wonders
  • Bermuda Triangle
    • 5 Science to adjacent tiles.
    • Naval units that enter the tile gain a Unit Ability called “Mysterious Currents” that grants +1 Movement and are teleported to another Ocean tile somewhere on the map.
  • Paititi
    • 3 Gold, 2 Culture to adjacent tiles.
    • Major adjacency for Commercial Hubs and Theater Squares.
    • City that has it in its territory receives +4 Gold on its outgoing International Trade Routes.
  • Fountain of Youth
    • 4 Science, 4 Faith
    • Units that enter it gain a Unit Ability called “Water of Life” that gives +10 HP when they heal in any territory.
    • Provides Fresh Water
 
They are no sillier than 6000 year old, and possibly immortal leaders. I must admit though that as a deeply rational person with an aversion to paranormal humbug I cringed at the inclusion of the Bermuda Triangle in the game.
 
I forgot that it was in the previous ones but the bermuda I don't know. This game is about planning and having my ship teleport away is a bit off. They could have it disappear for a bit or make it move more tiles when having one movement left or that nothing happens like a gamble.
