Forbidden World Tour: Places Where People Aren’t Allowed To Go

North Brother Island, USA

The bustling city of New York is home to the famous Lady Liberty and some of the most popular skyscrapers on the face of the planet. It is also one of the busiest cities on Earth, where you can find several business and investment centers. Once we consider that, most of us would instantly think that there is no place left in New York City that isn’t open to the public. If you were thinking the same thing, then you would probably be surprised that you are wrong.

There’s an island near the East River that is called the North Brother, which is widely known for its history. Back in the day, there used to be a hospital on the island, which eventually became a rehabilitation center up until its closure during the ‘60s. Since then, it became a bird sanctuary for herons and other shorebirds and was not made accessible to the public.
