Watch it - 500 Disney Castles and a Firefly Sanctuary

Look at all that.

In a world that often feels overcrowded and expensive, I find relief in seeing that in Turkey, there's enough space to build an entire neighborhood of 500 Disney castles. 500. Five. Hundred. 

This also tickles my weird bone because I want to know all the details like:

• Who's idea was this?
• How much has this cost to build so far?
• How much does it cost to live here?
• Why build 500?
• Why build 500 of the exact same castle?
• Is this real life?

Stuff like this gives me Chinese Paris vibes and I here for it. 

It's just too bad they build projects like this with cheap materials and shoddy craftsmanship. Because they actually could be really cool attractions if they weren't so dangerous. 

Those Chinese towns seem safe in the videos above.

But, people on the ground often report that the buildings are built poorly and are crumbling.

Ok, on to something totally different.

This one isn't as exciting but it really touched me in my heart place. My favorite memories as a kid are from when we lived in Illinois. Every summer evening during twilight, the fireflies would come out. I thought they were beautiful and magical. I would chase them around stomping along with the cool grass under my feet as I ran behind them, trying to get a closer look. 

This sanctuary in Mexico is home to a large amount of fireflies who put on a show every evening (as long as it isn't raining).
