Welcome To Pyramiden

Want to get away from it all? If just for a half hour or so? Leave all the school shootings, Russian collusions and sex trafficking behind? I ran across an interesting article in Newsweek a few days ago that piqued my interest. I have always held an interest in Scandanavia so this was right up my alley.

An interesting little fact about the place:

What’s also here is the Svalbard Global Seed Vault, a futuristic, underground bunker that stores millions of seeds from around the world—and is capable of surviving a nuclear holocaust.

If I had the time and money to burn, that would be one destination on my list.

There is an option on the bottom right of the Google maps that gives you pictures that are the local equivilent of Google Street View.

Hope you enjoy the trip.

I read that link, a great adventure and story. Thank you
OP, never would have known about this place
