A Taste of Travel with Atlas Obscura
One of the best things about Unsplash? With one quick scroll of the homepage, you’re immediately transported to inspiring destinations from all over the world. From the Maldives’ sandy beaches to ancient temples in Cambodia or the magnificent Misurina Lake in Italy, photography allows you to immerse yourself in places you’ve never visited in real life. It can serve as a window into new cultures and communities you haven’t yet experienced first hand.
Photography’s ability to let you travel through time and space feels more important than ever right now, as we spend our days indoors due to the COVID-19 pandemic. And while we are all finding new ways to stay creative at home — it’s okay to admit that we’re all dreaming of our next adventure. Which is why we’re excited to have Atlas Obscura guest curating the Travel Topic from now until June 18th.
Inspiring wonder and curiosity about the world
Atlas Obscura is a community of explorers who’ve come together to inspire curiosity about the world. From creating a comprehensive database of the world’s most wondrous places and foods to leading trips to the world’s most remarkable places — Atlas Obscura has truly become the definitive guide to hidden wonders around the world.
The stillness of the past few months has reminded us of how precious travel is to us and how valuable it is to the people and places who count on us to visit. So when you’re ready to travel again, Atlas Obscura is there to make your next trip matter with off-the-beaten path experiences and destinations announced for 2021.
