About this product

Product Information

Discover wonder. A wanderlust-whetting cabinet of curiosities on paper. - New York Times Inspiring equal parts wonder and wanderlust, Atlas Obscura is a phenomenon of a travel book that shot to the top of bestseller lists when it was first published and changed the way we think about the world, expanding our sense of how strange and marvelous it really is. This second edition takes readers to even more curious and unusual destinations, with more than 100 new places, dozens and dozens of new photographs, and two very special features: twelve city guides, covering Berlin, Budapest, Buenos Aires, Cairo, London, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Moscow, New York City, Paris, Shanghai, and Tokyo. Plus a foldout map with a dream itinerary for the ultimate around-the-world road trip. More a cabinet of curiosities than traditional guidebook, Atlas Obscura revels in the unexpected, the overlooked, the bizarre, and the mysterious. Here are natural wonders, like the dazzling glowworm caves in New Zealand, or a baobob tree in South Africa so large it has a pub inside where 15 people can sit and drink comfortably. Architectural marvels, including the M. C. Escher-like stepwells in India. Mind-boggling events, like the Baby-Jumping Festival in Spain-and no, it's not the babies doing the jumping, but masked men dressed as devils who vault over rows of squirming infants. Every page gets to the very core of why humans want to travel in the first place: to be delighted and disoriented, uprooted from the familiar and amazed by the new. With its compelling descriptions, hundreds of photographs, surprising charts, maps for every region of the world, and new city guides, it is a book you can open anywhere and be transported. But proceed with caution: It's almost impossible not to turn to the next entry, and the next, and the next.

    Excellent Quality. Brand New. Looks very nice! Seller's price UNBEATABLE. I'd buy from this Seller again. Description spot on. Seller's communication always XL+, very helpful & pleasant. Packaging XL+. I was afraid to open package. It's like opening a B'day present w/o the Gift wrap. Post cost's very reasonable. Excellent delivery time. Arrived on time, considering our mail usually takes over 2wk from anywhere in QLD, bcoz we're remote. 10Q very much. XL+

    CD was brand new and sealed as described, superb value.When it did not arrive by the estimate I contacted the seller and they got back to me that day, explaining about the backlog at the post office( Christmas and new year) and requesting me to wait a couple of days so I did and it was delivered in that time. Excellent customer service, very happy, having purchased here before . Packaging was fine, no damage to items enclosed. 🙂🙂
