10 Places That Cannot Be Visited
People now have the ability to travel to all kinds of places. Well, naturally, not right now because, you
know, 2020, but you know what I mean. But there are places that you won’t be able to set foot on
anytime soon, just like number one on our list, which is a place I bet you wouldn’t even dare visit even if
you were allowed to. Here are 10 places that cannot be visited.
Number 10. Snake Island, Brazil
The Ilha da Qeimada Grande, better known as Snake Island off the coast of Brazil is an island so
dangerous that the Brazilian authorities have made it illegal for anybody to even approach it without
authorization, and with good reason; the island is home to the largest concentrated population of one of
the most venomous snakes in the world – the golden lancehead viper. Lanceheads are not very large
snakes, growing to an average of just a foot and a half long, but they pack quite a punch. Any human
bitten by them could be dead within an hour, if not administered with the proper anti-venom. The island
is so densely packed; it is estimated that there are anywhere between 2000-4000 lanceheads living
there at any given time.
Local people believe that the lanceheads were introduced to the island by pirates to guard a horde of
treasure that they left there. These slithering deterrents were so effective that it’s believed that the
treasure is still there, it’s original owners unable to retrieve it, because of the snakes that they
themselves left there to protect it.
Number 9. Ise Grand Shrine, Japan
There are certain places that are forbidden everybody in general. However, there are some who can
only be entered by a select few; scientists, military officials, priests, or members of the royal family. This
is one such place.
The Ise Grand Shrine is one of the holiest places in Japan dedicated to the goddess of Sun, Amaterasu. It
is a huge complex consisting of more than 100 temples or shrines. The main temple is surrounded by a
high wooden fence, and the only ones allowed to enter are priests and senior members of the royal
family.
While the location of the shrine is said to date back to the third century, the standing structures have
been dismantled and replaced every 20 years — most recently in 2013 — consistent with Shinto beliefs
regarding death and renewal. One of the main shrines is believed to house the ‘Sacred Mirror,’ called
Yata no Kagami, part of the Imperial Regalia of Japan. From outside, little can be seen except a fence and
the buildings’ thatched roofs.
Number 8. The Vatican Archives
The Holy See has always been shrouded in mystery, and has always been at the sights of people who are
wondering about the secrets that lie within its holy walls. Thousands have claimed that the pope has
information, and even evidence to some of the greatest mysteries in the world. From the existence of
aliens and demons to the deepest darkest secrets of the world’s biggest religions, conspiracy theorists
have long speculated what is kept secret in the Vatican Secret Archive.
In recent years, it has been revealed that the Vatican Archives is home to some of the rarest and most
historical items in existence which includes a 60-meter-long scroll of parchment containing the minutes
of the infamous trial of the Knights Templar, a letter penned by then Pope Leo X excommunicating
Martin Luther, a letter to the pope from Mary Queen of Scots imploring him to intervene and stop her
execution, which was obviously denied, and letters from Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis, both non
Catholics, representing both sides of the Civil War, each asking for Pope Pius IX’s support in the war.
Unfortunately, only a select few has access to these priceless artifacts of human history.
Number 7. Area 51
No list of prohibited places would be complete without a mention of Area 51 — the nickname for a
remote detachment of United States Air Force facility Edwards Air Force Base, located in Southern
Nevada. The facility is shrouded in secrecy and while it has long believed to be a testing facility for
experimental aircraft and weaponry, conspiracy theorists favorite theory that the base is where the U.S.
government examines and stores a crashed alien space craft and the alien occupants, including evidence
from a supposed alien crash landing in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947.
Area 51 was created during the Cold War between the US and the Soviet Union as a testing and
development facility for aircraft, including the U-2 and SR-71 Blackbird reconnaissance planes. Although
it opened in 1955, its existence was only officially acknowledged by the CIA in August 2013.
What goes on inside is extremely secret.

10 Places On Earth You Should Never Visit
2020 has been, well, not have been very kind to us. With all of us stuck in our homes, I’m pretty sure
that most if not all of you are planning your first trips as soon as the lockdown is all over. However, no
matter how stir crazy you might be, I suggest don’t pay any of these places a visit, especially number 1,
not unless you want to be tormented by demons. Stay tuned to find out where that is as we bring you
10 places on earth you should never visit.
Number 10. Pluto’s Gate, Turkey
Pluto’s Gate, or Ploutonion in Greek, is an archeological site in southwestern Turkey that was discovered
in 2013 after following the route of a thermal spring. The site matches closely the description of the
temple to the underworld, called the “gate to hell”, that disappeared in the 6th century.
As the Greek geographer, philosopher, and prolific traveler Strabo, who lived from 64/63 BC to 24 AD),
so enticingly described it: “This space is full of a vapor so misty and dense that one can scarcely see the
ground. Any animal that passes inside meets instant death. I threw in sparrows and they immediately
breathed their last and fell.”
Pluto Gate's reputation was confirmed by scientists. After measuring the CO2 concentration, they found
out that at night, when the temperature decreases and CO2 becomes heavier than air, it forms some
kind of a lake on the bottom of the Gate. At dawn the concentration reaches its peak and any living
being risks their life by getting there. However, at daytime the site becomes safer, because the sun
dissipates the gas.
Number 9. Ilha da Queimada Grande
Better known as Snake Island, Ilha da Queimada Grande is home to a huge population of snakes.
According to some estimates, there's one snake in each square meter of the island. And they aren't just
some harmless grass snakes that only frighten you with their look but can't cause you any damage. The
snakes living in this island are world's most dangerous species. Among them is the golden lancehead
viper whose venom melts flesh around the bite.
These vipers' venom can kill a person in under an hour, and numerous local legends tell of the horrible
fates that awaited those who wandered onto the shores of "Snake Island." Rumor has it a hapless
fisherman landed onto the island in search of bananas—only to be discovered days later in his boat,
dead in a pool of blood, with snake bites on his body. From 1909 to the 1920s, a few people did live on
the island, in order to run its lighthouse. But according to another local tale, the last lighthouse keeper,
along with his entire family, died when a cadre of snakes slithered into his home through the windows.
Number 8. Bhangarh Fort, Rajasthan, India
Located at the border of the Sariska Tiger Reserve in the Alwar district of Rajasthan, Bhangarh Fort is a
17th-century fort, infamous all over India for being the 'Most haunted place in India'. Because of the
numerous ghostly experiences and happenings in the fort premises, villages have sprung up far away
from the fort, due to the fear of what lies within. Even the Archaeological Survey of India or the ASI has
forbidden the locals and tourists from entering the fort at night. This completely ruined, haunted fort of
Bhangarh does have a very eerie, negative aura to it. Several legends have attested to the paranormal
happenings inside the fort.
The history of the fort dates back to centuries. Built in the 17th Century in Rajasthan, the Bhangarh Fort
is an ancient specimen. It was believed to have been erected by Man Singh I, one of the Navratnas of
Akbar's court for his son Madho Singh I.
The place is said to be haunted due to a curse put on it by a black magician whose advances were
rejected by Princess Ratnavati of Bhangarh. The whole landscape around the Bhangarh Fort has been
haunted since.
Number 7. North Brother Island, New York, USA
Located on the East River between the Bronx and Riker’s Island, North Brother Island is an island with a
fascinating and tragic history. It was uninhabited until 1885, when the city purchased the island in order
to build Riverside Hospital, a hospital for people suffering from contagious diseases such as typhus,
tuberculosis, yellow fever, and smallpox.
The island’s most famous resident was “Typhoid Mary” Mallon, who bore the unfortunate distinction of
being the United States’ first documented asymptomatic carrier of the bacteria that causes typhoid
fever.
