Nowadays, it feels like everyone has the travel bug. With air fares becoming ever cheaper, the farthest places on the planet are now within our reach and if we want to visit somewhere, for the most part, we do. There are a number of places, however, which are off limits to even the most intrepid of travelers. Barred from public view, these locations only allow entry to the authorized and if you don’t make the cut, you’re not allowed a look in. This is probably the closest you’ll ever get to these places, so take a good look before it’s too late.
5. Disney Club 33

You would be forgiven for believing that all of the forbidden places around the world are the site of underground, illicit activity. Proving that sometimes, you just need to right key, the Disney Club 33 is a highly exclusive members club for high flying professionals. Hidden behind an innocuous looking door, political leaders and business tycoons are free to network to their heart’s content.
4. Snake Island

A place that gets its name from its very slimy residents, Snake Island isn’t a place that many of us would willingly like to visit. Home to an unusually high population of the reptiles, the island is thought to be one of the most deadly in the world, and any visitors to the island could put themselves in very real danger.
3. Ashgabat

A city in the relatively unknown country of Turkmenistan, Ashgabat hardly opens itself up for visitors. In fact, the country restricts the number of tourists it allows inside its borders and only those who receive an official letter of invitation are allowed to apply for a visa.
2. Church Of Our Lady Mary Of Zion

Churches tend to run under the mentality that all who wish to enter their walls are welcome, so the fact that one is barred from the public is very strange indeed. Located in Ethiopia, this church is claimed to house the original Ark of the Covenant, an incredibly precious biblical document. Needless to say, the general public are not allowed inside.

Not all places are forbidden because of secret activity, however, Surtsey is a volcanic island located just off the coast of the geologically active Iceland. While regular Joes aren’t allowed access to this highly active island, a number of scientists have been granted occasional visitation rights, all in the name of research.
