35 Photos That Show The Hidden Mysteries Of Well-known Spots

Published 2 days ago

It’s easy to recall famous landmarks and iconic objects. When we think of things like the Egyptian Sphinx or if we talk about the Leaning Tower of Pisa, we know exactly what to bring to our mind’s eye, even if we haven’t seen them with our own eyes. We can almost see the Sphinx’s face as well as the multitude of pics showing people trying to catch the Leaning Tower.

But have you ever wondered what the inside of the Leaning Tower may look like? Is it filled with rooms, pictures, and a winding staircase, perhaps? Or did you know that the mythical Sphinx, which is known to have the head of a human, the body of a lion and the wings of an eagle, also has a tail? These questions may have remained unanswered but for this particular collection of photos. Below, we’ve compiled a unique batch of images that show a fresh perspective of popular locations with a heretofore-unseen aspect.

Shanilou Perera

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.

Got wisdom to pour?
