The leaning tower of Pisa is one of the most famous Instagram-able spots in the world. There are pictures of people leaning on it or pretending to support it so that it doesn't fall. But did you know there’re more leaning towers out there? I’m gonna tell you all about it. Also, you’ll find out why Venice is always flooded and why London’s Big Ben is tilting.

Picture this: a group of locals stumble upon massive, intricately carved stones peeking out of the ground in southeastern Turkey. Not architects or historians, just ordinary folks going about their day. Turns out, it's the world-famous Göbekli Tepe, an ancient archaeological marvel dating back over 11,000 years. News spread like wildfire, and archaeologists were soon on the scene, unraveling the secrets of this prehistoric site. The accidental discovery rewrote the history books, challenging our understanding of early human civilization and leaving everyone in awe of the ancient builders who left their mark so long ago.

Our planet is home to many mysterious places you won't want to visit because it would be too dangerous, or the local population wouldn't welcome you. The Javarri Valley in Brazil is an untouched jungled area of 33 thousand square miles, slightly larger than Austria. It’s illegal for outsiders to enter this area, as contact with outside humans would be volatile to the natives' health. Heard Island is an offshore territory of Australia, 80% of it is covered in ice, and it has the country’s only active volcanoes. Here's your unique chance to see this and other territories around the world where you can't travel without a special permit.
