if you're planning your next holiday make sure to cross these destinations off your list welcome to watchmojo.com and today we're counting down our picks for the top ten places you are not allowed to visit for this list we're looking at those places that bar the general public from visiting however we are not including places that run group tours although we still might recommend avoiding Chernobyl if possible pretty highly contaminated number 10 Bohemian Grove California USA there's no one free here we're all the way not only does this campground restrict most of the general population from admission it also excludes anyone who identifies as female that's right Monte Rio's Bohemian Grove is the site of a private male-only Art Club that can only be accessed by members and their guests provided the latter passed the screening test that is this is a photograph of people who attend as we mentioned it is all men and this is a photograph of some of them members consist of artists government officials businessmen and other VIPs who gather together every summer at the Grove and use the encampment to well we're not quite sure what most people do not know is that for more than a century they've kicked off their retreat with a spectacular nighttime ceremony from the air the encampment is lit up with torches not much is known about what goes on because of the club's extreme secrecy and this has unsurprisingly garnered much controversy since the group's 1878 establishment above its the main objective of controlling the world while it's known to house facilities mostly for entertainment and recreational purposes only very few people have managed to get into the grove and report back our concern is not what's going on inside of the Grove but what's happening outside of the Grove with the people that are in here number 9 shirts say Iceland Oh you're going to sit oh you're so lucky a volcanic island located just off the south coast of Iceland short say formed in a volcanic eruption that lasted nearly four years from November 1963 to June 1967 within days the island of Surtsey appeared above the waves while certain botanists and biologists are able to visit the island for scientific purposes no other humans are allowed on the island in order to preserve its natural ecological process watching life take hold of Surtsey is the closest humans had come to watching how life would have emerged on earth all scientific visitors need to check their belongings before they enter to ensure that no seeds are introduced into the ecosystem this rule was put in place after 2009 when an improperly handled human defecation resulted in a tomato plant beginning to grow number 8 club 33 in Anaheim California USA and what's so cool about it is Club 33 well obviously the exclusivity located in the center of Disneyland this club is exclusive to VIP members and has a waiting list of over 10 years the club is the only location in Disneyland to offer alcoholic beverages during the day and is located at 33 Royal Street right beside the Blue Bayou restaurant to enter the club members need to buzz an intercom where a receptionist will grant access if the person is actually a member the club is furnished with several props from famous Disney films including a lavish walnut table with white marble top that was used in Mary Poppins number 7 Nick catacomb DePauw he Paris France we're about 200 feet below the streets and we finally made it in French that says this is the entrance to the Empire of death it's in the French capital that you will encounter these underground ossuary 's known as the catacombs of paris once consisting of stone mines what's left of these are caverns tunnels and the remains of an estimated 6 million people giving the catacombs the nickname of the world's largest grave thanks to natural human curiosity parts of the underground cemetery became visible in the 19th century and since become part of the 14 city of Paris museums however what interests us here are the parts of the catacombs that have been sealed off from the public with only some old gates blocking our paths our minds can only imagine what lies among those tunnels and caverns that have been deemed unnavigable for public consumption number six yet decay Madigan G Brazil the e a de que Madigan G also known as snake island is a small island located off the coast of South Paulo legend claims that there are five snakes to every square metre although a recent documentary stated that there is more likely to be one snake per square meter the only snake species on the island is the venomous golden lancehead its venom is set to be up to five times stronger than that of any mainland Viper and is capable of melting human flesh civilians are not allowed to visit the island and scientists are only allowed rare trips if they receive a special waiver for those who work with snakes it's very hard to go to the field and find many snakes and then here you don't have to walk that much and you can see many snakes so it's these are special conditions you can never find anywhere else number five North Sentinel island Andaman and Nicobar Islands India North Sentinel island is home to the Sentinelese a group of indigenous people with a population of somewhere between 50 and 400 they're one of the last peoples in the world to remain untouched by modern civilization and refuse any contact with outsiders as recently as 2006 two fishermen were killed by the Sentinelese when their boat drifted close to the island while peaceful contact was made during the early 1990s the Indian government stopped sending people to the island in 1997 we know from statistics that when you contact tribes like this where two-thirds of the population died after two years number four lasgo friends and in the center of this composition they have United the three principal animals of the school horse ox and deer Lesko is home to some of the best known Upper Paleolithic art in the world the cave paintings are estimated be more than 17,000 years old and mostly depict big animals the Lascaux caves have been added to the UNESCO World Heritage List and have been banned from the public since 1963 primarily because any human presence in the cave could potentially be destructive currently only a handful of scientists are allowed to enter the caves though a replica of them called less co2 was open to the public in 1983 number 3 RAF Menwith Hill England now it's been called the largest spy Centre on earth jointly run by the UK in the u.s. the men with Heil complex in rural England monitors the communications of dozens of other countries described as one of the world's biggest if not the biggest electronic monitoring stations this Royal Air Force Station provides intelligent support service to the United States of America and the United Kingdom it was originally set up to intercept messages between the Soviet Union and its allies during the Cold War but the station is still in full operation today in fact several of the satellites are controlled directly by the American NSA something that's been criticized in recent years after the Snowden leaks number two the Vatican secret archives Vatican City this week the Vatican Secret Archives found in Vatican City contain all of the important documents that the Catholic Church has accumulated over the centuries including state papers and papal account books it acts as the central repository for all the acts promulgated by the Holy See they should perhaps be called the Vatican private archives however because the documents are not actually secret they're more like the Pope's personal property we are a steel arrangement and organize the Dierk Ives and so I think that many documents are to discover you cannot enter the archive however and in order to examine a document you need to submit a formal request and then if accepted access will be supplied to you the personal papers of pope john paul ii who died in 2005 are locked away until but only qualified scholars can actually apply and only documents from 1939 or earlier can actually be viewed by the public just a few days for this and it could have actually finished my book before we unveil our number one pick here are some honorable mentions you number one area 51 Nevada USA after Lincoln County deputies arrived the driver and passengers were pulled out cited for trespassing and given court dates the projected fine $650 apiece and a misdemeanor conviction the u.s. has frequently been criticized for being highly secretive and Nevada's area 51 has been a hotbed for criticism and speculation for decades while the basis primary purpose is unknown to the public historical evidence suggests that it's been used to develop and test weapons all research in area 51 is considered top-secret which has made it a frequent subject of UFO folklore recent sightings are in no way connected with any secret development by any agency of the United States many people believe that the base is home to alien spacecraft and even alien species while others suggest that scientists are working on time travel or teleportation devices every u.s. stealth aircraft has been tested at area 51 in one way or another as the base is closed to the public speculation about the US Air Force facility should only continue to grow area 51 area 51 no ma'am this is area 51 a do you agree with our list what do you think is the most interesting place you're not allowed to visit for more exciting top 10s
