1. House of the Virgin Mary in Ephesus - a place of pilgrimage for Christians.
There is a spring here, the water from which is considered healing. There is a wall near it, where everyone can make a wish by fixing a bundle of any material on specially installed gratings. According to legend, the Dormition of the Mother of God, who spent the last years of her earthly life here, took place in this house.
2. Leopold Fountain in Innsbruck. To make a wish, it is enough to rub the leg of the bronze Poseidon, which stands in the center of the fountain, without slipping.
3. Blarney Castle in Ireland.
A part of the Scone Stone, the sacred relic of Scotland, on which kings were crowned in the old days, was built into the wall of the castle, and, as the legend says, whoever kisses the stone will acquire the gift of eloquence.
4. "Revolution Square" in Moscow.
They say that in order to pass the exams well, you need to rub the nose of a bronze dog with your sleeve. If studying does not go to your head, you need to touch the student's leg with a book - this helps to forget unhappy love.
5. Sculpture of Jan Nepomuk on the Charles Bridge.
To make all your plans come true, you must either take John of Nepomuk with one hand and the dog on the bridge reliefs (you will recognize them by their polishedness) with the other, or put your hand on a cross with five stars on a marble board and make a wish.
6. Zero meridian in London.
Once in Greenwich, you need to stand on the zero meridian line (according to another version, stand above it so that one foot is in the Western Hemisphere and the other in the Eastern) and make a wish.
7. The Seven Springs of Rhodes is one of the famous tourist spots on the island.
They say that in order to be cleansed of sins, you need to take off your shoes and walk barefoot through a dark tunnel, along the bottom of which an icy stream flows.
8. Trevi Fountain in Rome - the largest fountain in Rome.
To return to Rome - you need to throw one coin into the fountain, two - to meet an Italian, or even as many as three - in order to get married
9. Wailing Wall in Jerusalem.
This is the holiest place for the Jews. It has become a custom for millions of people around the world to put notes between the stones of the Wailing Wall. They write requests for sending down health, prosperity, salvation and good luck.
10. Golden Gates - an arched coastal rock near the Kara-Dag volcanic massif in the Crimea, on the Black Sea coast.
Previously, the Golden Gate was called Sheitan-Kapa ("devil's gate"). It was believed that somewhere there, among the rocks, was the entrance to the underworld. Now the rock is perceived extremely positively. Passage through the arch of the Golden Gate on a small boat promises the fulfillment of the most secret desire. The bottom here is littered with coins that tourists willingly throw.
