My favorite :

Condom, France.

  Curiously enough, just outside Condom we stopped to picnic at a ruined 
  country church.  It had old stone walls but had lacked a roof for at least
  a century, judging by the bushes and weeds growing through the floor.  In 
  the center of the sanctuary stood a rough stone altar, shining in the
  hot sun.  In the center of the altar top lay an empty package of
  birth control pills.
