About this listen
*Skip to 05:51 to avoid my ramblings and get straight into the story! 😅🙃*
I’ve always been interested in secret things, like hidden rooms and unlockable safes (looking at your reddit).
But what if there were similar secrets hidden inside places visited by millions of people per year?
Today we’ll discover the oddities and subtle synchronicities of two of the world’s most famous landmarks.
Next stop: France.
