Translated to English, The Museum of Tomorrow is an exhibition that combines science and art and shows its visitor, among other things, the future developments mankind will face in biodiversity, technology, climate change and growing population. Launched in 2015, this place is a great way to explore the unknown in an interactive way.

This beautiful example of Spanish colonial architecture contains a small museum dedicated to the Spanish Inquisition's brutal persecution of heretics once carried out in these very chambers. Visitors can still see some of the torture devices used to extract confessions of heresy and witchcraft, along with some of the questions used in "witch" interrogations, which are still displayed on the museum wall. Needless to say, no prisoner could hope to be acquitted of their purported crimes against the Catholic Church, and most met their tragic end at the very guillotine still on display in the courtyard.

About 20 minutes south of Anchorage, Beluga Point is one of those spots that makes you want to pull over. The views across Turnagain Arm—a long, narrow stretch of ocean surrounded by steep mountains—are wide open and dramatic. If the tide’s right, you might catch beluga whales chasing salmon along the shoreline. They’re most active in late summer, but even if they don’t show up, the view’s not a bad consolation.

You will find the Basilica of Begoña at Calle Virgen de Begoña on the top of a hill. The church construction started in 1511 and it is widely held that the Virgin Mary appeared at that exact spot. You can see that the church is still important to the sailors of Bilbao. There are still ships which are named after the church, Virgen de Begoña or just Begoña–the patron saint of Biscay. Experience history first-hand when you walk through the doors of this basilica.
