Secret doors

-

If you think you’ve cracked it just by making it to famous landmarks like Mt Rushmore and the Eiffel Tower, think again. A recent Travel +

Leisure feature revealed the secret rooms you never even knew existed in landmarks around the world. In Mt Rushmore, there’s a secret room behind Abraham Lincoln’s head, and the architect of the Eiffel Tower built a hidden apartment right at the top for his sole benefit. Disneyland in New Orleans boasts the exclusive Club 33, an entire dining room, which is not only incredibly difficult to find, but costs $25,000 to join. And hidden elsewhere in the United States, the Empire State Building has a secret observatio­n deck on the 103rd floor, and Niagara Falls has a spookilyna­med Cave of the Evil Spirits.
