...project didn't disappoint. Atlas Obscura has quickly become a travel guide for voyagers in search of destinations that would normally never crack tourist itineraries. In Liverpool, there's an art installation consisting of 100 identical statues of the naked artist. In Zurich, there's the Moulagenmuseum, dedicated solely to displaying wax representations of painful facial diseases. And in Brooklyn, there's a secret tunnel under Atlantic Avenue, where the body of a murdered British man is still likely hidden somewhere in the walls. More helpful still, Atlas Obscura includes a map for each oddity's location and frequently includes...

...ROCHELLE, France — Like many other unsuspecting American travelers, I came to Europe with a rather rosy idea of European train travel. Every guidebook that I have ever read expounds on the virtues of the system—travelers can hop on and off trains whenever and wherever they desire at very little expense!

...Train travel in Europe is actually a paradox: It’s only cheap if you book way in advance, and only flexible if you don’t mind paying extra for the privilege and don’t have a set itinerary.
