Things You'll Only See In Russia

Whale Bone Alley

Yttygran Island is a Russian island that should be on everyone's bucket list. The island is known for its Whale Bone Alley because of the whale bones that can be found there. Not only is this an interesting spot, but it's a memorial for all of the whales who lost their lives to the countries nasty whaling industry, which has since shut down. The bones were arranged by locals but found along the beach. No one is sure how.
