Ever wanted to take a trip to Disappointment Island, Camp Suicide Road, or, most appropriately right now, Quarantine Beach? These are places that actually exist, and the Instagram account Sad Topographies has a map showing where all of these weirdly depressing places are around the world. Geographer and photographer Damien Rudd has collated all of the bizarrely named places, to "spread sadness worldwide" and provide "Somewhere to go when you're feeling low." Below is a snapshot of his collection to give you an idea of how sad some of the names truly are.
