Dark tourism refers to visiting sites associated with death, tragedy, or suffering, such as memorials, battlefields, disaster sites, and locations of atrocities. Examples include Auschwitz, Ground Zero, Chernobyl, and the Killing Fields in Cambodia. The term was coined in 1996 but the practice has existed longer. It's not about Africa (Dark continent), nighttime travel, or racial demographics.
