An island you can't leave once you enter

Today, I’d like to introduce Alcatraz Island, located in the middle of San Francisco Bay. This was once the most notorious prison in the United States. Since the entire island was one huge prison, it had a reputation of being “escape-proof.” The main building of Alcatraz, the main prison, is eerie the moment you enter. The cramped solitary cells, creaking iron doors, and the lives of the prisoners are vividly felt. In particular, the punishment cell, known as “The Hole,” did not receive a single ray of light, so the suffering the prisoners must have endured at the time was beyond imagination. The most famous anecdote here is the prison escape incident in 1962. The mystery of the escape of three people still continues, and it is said that the prisoners swam to the shore and escaped, and then disappeared. Thanks to these stories, rumors of psychic phenomena continue to spread around Alcatraz. In the early 1970s, the prison closed, and it is now a museum and famous tourist attraction. With its unique atmosphere, history, and even unsolved cases, Alcatraz is a must-visit. #JulyTravelSupport #USTravel #USWesternTravel #CaliforniaTravel #SanFranciscoTravel
