Most people think that Voodoo originated in Haiti but little do they know, this religion actually has deep roots in West Africa. In Voodoo every creature, alive or dead, is potent and divine, that’s why you’ll find piles of bodies of various animals stacked on one another in different stages of decay. Dead alligators, goats, chickens, lizards, monkeys, leopards and corpses of many other critters are being sold here. Also, it smells like something died there. A lot of something.
8. Gypsy Brides Market, Bulgaria
If you thought the Indian culture was “uptight” about their wedding traditions, wait till you hear more about the Romani (Gypsy)! In a nutshell it’s something like this: girls are taken out of school at 15, not to provoke any unwanted intermingling with the boys, and then, when the time is right, they are being sold by their parents on the Gypsy Brides market for up to $6,000, if the girl is really cute. The price is always negotiable, though. Best market in the world, right?
