This Diego Maradona Mural in Naples, Italy is just one of the many interesting Google Maps oddities you’ll find when bored. It’s located in a small square 300-yards up the hill from Via Toledo and many fans visit daily to pay tribute to one of the most famous Argentina-born football players. The mural was painted by Mario Filardi in 1990 when Napoli won their second league title, and was then touched up 26-years-later by Argentine street artist Francisco Bosoletti.

3. Crowd of Penguins – Cuverville Island, Antarctica
Cuverville Island isn’t a place you often hear about, as it’s a dark, rocky island lying in Errera Channel between Arctowski Peninsula and the northern part of Rongé Island, off the west coast of Graham Land in Antarctica. It has been designated as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports a breeding colony of about 6,500 pairs of gentoo penguins, the largest for this species on the Antarctic Peninsula.
