The world’s most weird-but-true locations, captured in twelve brilliant travel posters.<br/><br/>Experience a year of wonder in twelve travel posters featuring bizarre-but-real locations and surprising natural phenomena from around the globe, from Atlas Obscura, the brand synonymous with adventure.

Bursting with surprising facts and discoveries, and brought to life through luminous illustrations from Sam Chivers, it’s a year of enchantment to feed the insatiable curiosity of any global citizen. A great gift for the curious explorer and armchair traveler.
