#10 Jatinga , a village  located in the state of Assam in India. It is most famous for the phenomenon of birds “committing suicide”. According to Wikipedia “the birds do not commit suicide and are actually killed, however, the myth of the suicides has spread far and wide among common people”.

#9  The Maunsell Sea Forts. They were made to protect England from a apparent threat of Nazi invasion during WWII. Today, they are mostly empty and scary.
