About This Website
Created by Kash
This interactive global map visualizes the geographic locations of folklore, myths, and fairy tales from around the world. Each marker represents a story, legendary figure, or mythical location, allowing you to explore the rich tapestry of human storytelling across different cultures and regions.
Stories are categorized by type (Folklore, Legendary Figure, Deity, etc.) and include details about their origins, descriptions, and cultural significance. The map uses color-coded markers to help distinguish between different types of entries, making it easier to explore specific categories of stories.
Some markers might seem like they don't belong, and you'd be correct. I just wanted to add it because it's a cool entry.
