7Svalbard Global Seed Vault, Norway

Sometimes referred to as “the Doomsday Vault”, the Global Seed Vault in Norway is a very important place for all of us.

It stores 100 million seeds from all over the world to restore the plant kingdom in case something bad happens to our planet’s vegetation. Opened in 2008, the vault was built to last about 200 years and it can withstand explosions and earthquakes.
