From Times Square to the sun kissed beaches of Rio – Here is how Coronavirus has changed the face of the world’s most crowded places


World peace was all we have always wanted. The world is now peaceful but let’s be honest we are missing the usual chaos and bustle of our daily lives. Coronavirus has led to us quarantining ourselves and locking our lives in the four walls of our humble abodes. While there’s chatter inside our homes the outskirts are a stark contrast. Places around the world that are included in everyone’s buckets lists are now vacant. Listed below are pictures that exhibit the eerie silence of our planet and its very famous, once-overcrowded spots-


Times Square, New York City-
Who could’ve thought a day would come when Times Square would be without a single soul wandering, without the sounds of cameras and the chaos of herds of people?
