atlas obscura is "a compendium of this age's wonders, curiosities, and esoterica. The Atlas Obscura is a collaborative project with the goal of cataloging all of the singular, eccentric, bizarre, fantastical, and strange out-of-the-way places that get left out of traditional travel guidebooks and are ignored by the average tourist. If you're looking for miniature cities, glass flowers, books bound in human skin, gigantic flaming holes in the ground, phallological museums, bone churches, balancing pagodas, or homes built entirely out of paper, the Atlas Obscura is where you'll find them."
A 500 year old scuplture depicts a man eating a sack of babies, and no one is sure why.
bonus: some of the categories are catacombs crypts and cemeteries, ghost towns, crime and punishment, medical museums, memento mori, mummies, and more! shit!
