On the northern shore of remote Etigran Island, 82 kilometers from the coast of Alaska, there is a strange tourist spot. The jawbone, ribs and spine of the giant whale get stuck to the ground, creating a haunted path.

 

 

People think that the site dates back to the 14th or 15th century, but no one is sure if it was a sacred meeting place for local tribes or just a place for mass whale hunting. What we do know is that it is one of the strangest places in the world.

Megalithic stone jars are scattered throughout Jiang Khoang Province in Laos in groups ranging from one to one hundred. A working theory is that huge cylindrical jars were used in ancient funeral ceremonies, although according to local legend the jars were used to make rice wine for giants.

 

 

Northern Laos was the subject of a massive air bombardment by the United States, and it has been relatively recently cleared of some areas and declared safe for visitors.

One of the strangest places in the world is Cat Island in Japan. It is a short ferry ride from the east coast of Japan. There are about a hundred people on the island known as Tashirojima, but there are even more cats.

 

 

Cats were mainly welcomed because the island produced silk, and the rats, which were a threat to silkworms, were kept away by the cats. The fishermen also thought that cats bring good luck. There is even a cat temple and cat-shaped cabins for tourists. Dogs are not allowed to move.

Recently, Cat Island has become a popular place for tourists who love cats. People work to keep cats healthy, with volunteers and groups providing food and medical care.
