Visiting the Gibraltar Monkeys
Gibraltar has a number of attractions that make it of interest to tourists. One is that it’s a British sovereignty whose Strait is a gateway between Western Europe and North Africa. It’s also mostly VAT tax-free shopping mecca. Another attraction is the presence of hordes of roving macaque monkeys that while not domesticated are used to tourists and will steal food aggressively, but are otherwise entertaining.

The morbid part is that some of the walls are built out of human skulls and bones.
