Read-only tools over the Detourmap atlas: 39,832 notable places across 233 countries, and nothing else — the map is cut to 2 kinds: archaeological (ancient ruins, tombs, ghost towns, shipwrecks, catacombs, mines, battlefields and crash sites); nature (parks, mountains, waterfalls, caves, volcanoes and coves). It is an atlas of what nature made and what people left behind, so it holds no museums, galleries, churches, castles, gardens or theme parks. (Facts from Wikidata, CC0; every place has a photo and a Wikipedia article, in English where one exists and otherwise in at least three other languages.) Every result links its spot on https://detourmap.com. Use search_places / get_place for lookups, places_near for "what's worth visiting near X" (geocode X first), top_places for fame, list_kinds / list_countries for coverage, get_statistics for aggregate claims and random_place for discovery.

Inferred read-only
top_places

The most famous places worldwide, in one country, or of one kind — ordered by Detourmap fame rank (derived from Wikipedia language coverage; rank 1 is the most famous).

Inferred read-only
list_kinds

The layers Detourmap carries — archaeological and nature — with worldwide counts and a browsable index page for each.

Inferred read-only
list_countries

Every country in the atlas with its place count, most first — answers "which country has the most notable places".

Inferred read-only
get_statistics

Headline statistics computed live from the atlas: totals by kind, top countries, fame-tier sizes, dated-entry stats, geographic extremes and the most famous place.

Inferred read-only
random_place

One random place with its full record — deliberately biased toward the little-known long tail, like the site’s own "Surprise me" button.
