replying to @cactusjoe333 @cactusjoe333 @BradtGuides Might be similar to the streetside coffee stalls in Ethiopia - it's part of the culture. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @BradtGuides A4 It's pretty popular if you're in Prague but if you're not, the Sedlec Ossuary (aka Bone Church) in nearby Kutna Hora is definitely not an attraction you see every day! #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @BradtGuides A4: The Spanish Riding School in Vienna was a very bizarre #travel experience. I just didn't get it. On the one hand, they promote the horses for showcasing all covered under the premise "tradition", but then it is pure cruelty to the horses. It makes zero sense. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @BradtGuides A4: This estate, Quinta das Lagrimas, in Coimbra, Portugal is linked to a popular 14th century legend of forbidden love and murder. No wonder the word “tears” (lagrimas) is in the name. #TRLT

@TheTravelCamel @BradtGuides A4: Seattle's gum wall is pretty unusual.
They'd scraped most of it off on my first visit so I had to return to see it in all its glory a few months later.
Mannekin Pis also springs to mind and his frequently changing outfits in Brussels.

A4 The roaming puppet theatre in @unesco Khiva is one of the more unusual cultural attractions I've visited on #TRLT. A puppet might well pounce on you in the street, complimenting your fashion sense, proposing marriage, or stealing your lunch!

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @BradtGuides A4. Not unusual but definitely one of the most unique cultural attentions I’ve been to. The memorial park in Khao Lak which was devastated in the Asian tsunami. The patrol boat was out at sea and ended up in the middle of town where it’s been left as part of the park. #TRLT

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @BradtGuides A4) Probably Le Petite France in South Korea, its a roadside attraction based on the book, The Little Prince. It's an interesting place but not something I expected to see in Asia. #TRLT

@ChinaMatt Yep. I went there. Because of course I did. #trlt
I also went to the Icelandic Punk Music museum in an old public toilet.
It's a weird country ... #trlt ... and I like that.
replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas Madrid has (probably) the best museums near and far. #TRLT
