Explore Random Locations Around the World.
Somewhere randomly generates a public Instagram-hosted image. It then tells you the location the image was taken. The photographs hosted on Somewhere usually depict a specific geographic location or destination, and the site also explains what can be seen in the image. One example was an image of the Neuschwanstein Castle, which is located in Schwangau, Germany. Somewhere features the image, indicates its location and also explains that the castle “is a nineteenth-century, Romanesque Revival palace on a rugged hill above the village of Hohenschwangau.” Every image also comes with the option to “read more” about whatever was depicted, and the “read more” button typically links to a Wikipedia page.
