Part Two - #DarkTourism diaries
#Aghdam , 2018. “Of the iconic places, the Juma mosque built at the end of the 19th c.has been preserved. The sick irony is that cattle graze in Aghdam, and pigs (a dirty, haram animal in Islam) walk around the mosque.” 1/

#titanicsubmarine is #darktourism and not even a new one:
1) commodification of death: due to capitalist inequalities, the rich become elite tourists in death sites
2) purchase of macabre views: people seek emotional contagion of macabre to “feel” unique

There are 3 punishment islands In Uganda and I’ve had the chance to visit all of them. In traditional Bakiga society, pregnancy before marriage was seen as bringing shame to the family.

Would be great to get #Cromwell 's head. Drawda would then have two heads for tourists. Maybe Louth County Council could make some enquiries?

#TExTOURglossary : #DarkTourism ⚠️
Last year Wuhan's touristic flow increase spiced up the debate around dark tourism ethics.

Which is your opinion?
Prof David Wilson Craig Kelly I have often been challenged about #DarkTourism and the connections to true crime writing. I have visited dozens and dozens of crimes scenes as has many of us...
#OnThisDay 30 January 1661, the exhumed corpses of Oliver #Cromwell , Henry Ireton & John Bradshaw were hanged then decapitated at Tyburn in revenge for their part in the execution of Charles I, 11 years before. Their heads were displayed over Westminster Hall. #17thCentury #OTD
When visiting what is remembered as Bridge on the River Kwai, I was dismayed by the commercialisation. Everyone's got to make a buck, but exploiting an event renowned for its cruelty & starvation diets? Example of how history & cinema can influence memory & place. #DarkTourism
