A very beautiful gift book featuring photographs and descriptions of more than 700 of the most unusual, unexplored, and interesting places on Earth—both natural and man-made.
It is time to get off the beaten tourist path! The authors of the Atlas Obscura project have collected over 700 unusual, strange, unknown, mystical, impressive, bizarre, and curious places on Earth—both natural and man-made—from every continent.
Among them are King Zedekiah’s Cave in Jerusalem; the Salt Man of Chehrabad; a baobab tree in South Africa that houses an entire pub for 15 people; the "Gates of Hell" in Turkmenistan; a village in Spain where an annual baby-jumping festival takes place; a ship graveyard in Bangladesh; glowworm caves in New Zealand; the Kola Superdeep Borehole in the Murmansk region—the deepest in the world; a giant head of Lenin in Ulan-Ude; the Diefenbunker Cold War Museum in Ottawa; and much, much more.
