Harsh effects of global warming, strained country ties, Zika virus, the escalating tension between the US and China, a homogenous Philippine Senate… Doomsday seems to be drawing closer than ever. But hey, we’ve been here before. But when d-day does come, it’s highly, if not totally, unlikely that we’d be able to escape the inevitability of humankind’s predicted apocalyptic scenarios (the Second Coming, zombie pandemic, World War 3…), but hell, let it not be said that we didn’t die trying.

8. Pic de Bugarach

We know; it sounds completely out of this world. But when an alien invasion does happen, you know where to go.

7. Vivos Survival Shelter

Live comfortably in these fully furnished underground shelters originally used by the government during the Cold War. It has everything you’d expect from a usual 4-star hotel; amenities, entertainment, indoor garden, and basic necessities to survive a year minimum without ever needing to go up to the surface. They’ll last for hundreds of years and can withstand the force of a 20-megaton nuclear blast within a few miles. So if it’s a nuke war you’re getting, owning a Vivos Shelter sounds like your best chance for survival.

6. Cheyenne Mountain Complex

Vivos Shelter isn’t the only underground shelter that should be within your radar, though. Deep inside a hollowed out mountain in central Colorado is a hidden bunker originally built to aid military commanders survive a direct nuclear attack. It isn’t open for civilians, though, as it serves as an alternate command center and training site. But keep this mentally booked for doomsday survival!

5. Chiang Mai

This peaceful city in Thailand is the chosen residence of legendary Swiss investor Marc Faber, who is known to consistently talk of the “apocalypse of the world economy.” (Bet you didn’t think about that possible doomsday scenario, huh?) The fact that Chiang Mai is also nestled within the mountains makes it a good area to survive monstrous tsunamis that will wipe out low-lying lands.

4. Alaska

In the event of a zombie apocalypse, Alaska is the perfect inhabitable place to be (that is, if you find yourself across the world amidst the outbreak. Otherwise, read our previous article of local safe zones to know where to head to.) This isolated US state is freezing cold, is home to wolves and bears, and has majority of its residents equipped with guns which makes it the state least likely to be infested with the undead.

3. Perth, Australia

To those who can’t make it through the low temperatures of Alaska, you could seek solace in the high temperatures of Australia. Perth is one of the most remote cities in the world and isn’t as densely populated as the more urban cities like Sydney. Being close to the ocean also makes for an easy getaway from a sudden city-center zombie outbreak.

2. Luxury Survival Condo

Who knew you could turn a missile silo into a luxury survival bunker you can rent like a normal condominium? It contains everything you’d want and need for long-term survival—recreational facilities, indoor parks, a theater, and general stores—all while offering the highest level of protection and security from potential wide-scale disasters. Owning a unit doesn’t come cheap though, and aspiring owners must be screened first for safety measures. At least you know just how particular they are in choosing the right people to survive the apocalypse!

1. Vatican City

When all else fails, flee to the Holy City. Pray alongside the Pope, and ask mercy from God to be spared.
