This chapel is located in Évora, Portugal, and is one of the most famous monuments in the city. The chapel gets its name from the internal walls covered and decorated with human bones and skulls.

The Chapel of Bones was built in the 16th century by a Franciscan monk who wanted to tell his brothers that life is short. This is why the walls are covered with bones.

At the entrance to the chapel, there is a sign: Nós ossos que aqui estamos pelos vossos esperamos. This can be translated as  We bones that here are, for your await.

7. Hoia Forest

The Hoia Forest is located in Transylvania and is famous for various stories about paranormal events.

According to legend, the forest is named after a shepherd who once entered the forest with animals and disappeared with them in thick fog. No signs of assault were found.

Many researchers say they experienced fear, panicked, and heard different voices while in the woods, all for inexplicable reasons.

Some of them are convinced that they saw a UFO there; Others are sure that they have found ghosts.

It’s hard to believe any of this, even if there are images that allegedly captured these events. But is there a better place than Transylvania for things like this to happen?

Hill of Crosses is a holy place in Lithuania, and it is a hill with lots of crosses. The exact number of crosses is unknown, but according to some calculations in the 1990s, there were around 50,000.

The site is not a cemetery, but more and more crosses appear because people believe that if you leave a cross on the hill, you will be lucky.

There is no precise information on the time and reasons why the hill was made in the first place.

5. El Caminito del Rey

El Caminito del Rey is Spanish for “The King’s Little Pathway.” It is concrete construction with steel rails in the rock.

The path is between the Chorro and Gaitanejo waterfalls, in Malaga, Spain, and is well above ground. The path is 1.8 miles long and only 3.2 feet wide.

It was built in 1905 as an auxiliary road for the workers who were building the dam. The path was used to go from one side of the canyon to the other. T

he name “king” was given to the road after Alfonso XIII, the king of Spain, walked it at the opening ceremony.

4. Hanging Coffins

Sagada is very attractive to tourists because this area was once part of the ocean. Now, there are many caves that many foreigners to the Philippines want to visit.

In addition to the caves, there are many rocks in Sagada, and in one of them, you can see the hanging coffins. It is not a very pleasant sight.

Burial in hanging coffins is a very old tradition, and the coffins were carved from solid pieces of wood.

After the deceased was placed inside, the coffin was placed on very high cliffs (up to 380 feet) or in caves. According to legend, mountains were a ladder between Earth and heaven.

The encierro is a tradition where you have to run away from bulls that were released on purpose. This is still a popular form of entertainment in many towns in Spain.

The most popular running of the bulls is held in Pamplona during the San Fermín festival.

The route is approximately 1 km and everyone can participate, including tourists. The running of the bulls begins after a fireworks explosion, then the bulls are released and the participants run away from them.

There are no conditions for you to travel the entire distance. So if you feel like you’re in danger, you can hide somewhere.

2. The Capuchin Catacombs

In Palermo, Italy, there are catacombs where more than 8,000 people were buried. This place is one of the most famous exhibitions of mummies.

The catacombs were built in the late 16th century when the number of attendees at the Capucci monastery increased, and they needed a larger burial site.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, this place became a luxurious place for the burial of clergymen and bourgeois families.

The catacombs were officially closed only in 1882. Since then, no one has been buried there.

1. Shipwreck In The Solomon Islands

This place is uncharted territory for boats because there are many underwater coral formations. In 2000, the Liberian cruise ship World Discoverer got stuck near the Solomon Islands in the Pacific Ocean.

None of the passengers was injured, but there was no way to rescue the ship, making it home to fish and other sea creatures.
