World's Most Extreme Tourist Attractions. by Nobody: 5:48am On Aug 06, 2014 |
The world is filled with unique and fascinating places to visit but there are certain places that might not be everyone’s bucket list…Found some of the most crazy, scary and creepy tourist attractions in the world and just a word of warning: These are NOT for the faint hearted! 1. Capuchin Catacombs, Italy. This macabre burial catacomb in Palermo, Sicily includes over 8000 well-dressed, well-preserved mummies dressed in their finest clothes.The corpses range in date from the late 1500s to 1920 and most were embalmed before their display.Giuseppe Tommasi, prince of Lampedusa and author of the famous Sicilian workThe Leopard, was buried in the cemetery next to the catacombs in 1957. Visitors can wander through the catacombs' dank corridors among the mummified bodies. The halls are divided intocategoriesthat include: Men, Women, Virgins, Children, Priests, Monks, and Professors (including the famous painter Velasquez).The corpses are dressed insplendid clothes, now somewhat decayed, and occupy their own individual niches according to their social status. Many of the deceased wrote wills that specified the clothes in which to bury them, and some even asked to have their clothes changed over a period of time.Many corpses are still remarkably preserved and some give the impression of enjoying a joke with their deceased friends. Others are not in such good shape, with horriblycontorted, creepy faces and missing parts like jaws and hands.The last corpse to be buried here was that of 2-year-old Rosalia Lombaro, who died in 1920. She is so well-preserved, she has been nicknamed "Sleeping Beauty." 5 Likes
