Normally people make their travel itineraries making sure that some of the world’s most beautiful places are definitely in it. But here we look at a totally different set of tourist destinations which attract people from all over the world and definitely can’t be described as Alice’s Wonderland.
Winchester Mansion, in San Hose, California tops the list. It is believed that the souls of the all the victims of the Winchester rifle reside in this huge mansion. Moving on to Europe, we come to the Museum of Execution Instruments in Paris. Started by an executioner, it displays all the instruments of execution from around the world. In the hunt for the next scariest place we come to Tibet, at the valley of the dead where the yogis come to die and one can find their bones scattered all around. Next we arrive at the Museum of Anatomopathology in Vienna. It portrays all the pathologies, abnormalities, and harsh medieval medicine. Our next destination is the Sedlec Ossuary in the Czech Republic. It displays an array of different bones and skulls with almost 7000 human skeletons in the church.

The Matterhorn or Cervino, as it is called in Italian is without doubt the most familiar mountain in the European Alps. On the border between Switzerland and Italy, it stands tall over the Swiss village of Zermatt and the Italian village Breuil-Cervinia in the Val Tournanche. The mountain gets its name from the German words Matte, meaning meadow, and Horn, which means peak.

The Matterhorn has four faces and each one faces the four compass points: the north and east faces overlook, respectively, the Zmutt Valley and Gornergrat ridge in Switzerland while the south face fronts the resort town of Breuil-Cervinia in Italy and the west face looks towards the mountain of Dent d’Hérens which straddles the Swiss-Italian border. The north and south faces meet at the summit of Matterhorn to form a short east-west ridge. The faces are steep, and only small patches of snow and ice cling to them because regular avalanches send the snow down to accumulate on the glaciers at the base of each face. The Hörnli ridge of the northeast is the usual climbing route.
