  • conjugal visit suites.

  • At the other end of the prison spectrum is the US Penitentiary, Administrative Maximum

  • Facility, or ADX, located in Florence, Co. It was constructed in response to several

  • security breaches and correctional officer injuries at other maximum security prisons.

  • or too great a national security risk such as leaders of violent gangs, domestic and

  • foreign terrorists, and inmates at high escape-risk. Cells have a desk, a stool, and a bed which

  • are almost entirely made out of concrete, as well as a toilet that shuts itself off

  • if blocked, and a shower where the water runs on a timer to prevent flooding.

  • federal prison located on Alcatraz Island in the San Francisco bay, and operated from

  • 1934-1963. It was designed to hold prisoners who continually caused trouble at other federal

  • prisons, and held some of the most hardened criminals in Americas history including Al

  • Capone and George "Machine Gun" Kelly. It was believed to be inescapable and America's

  • guests are served with plastic plates and cutlery inside of this prison restaurant.

  • Bastoy Minimum Security Prison is located on the small, scenic Bastoy Island, about

  • an hour from Oslo, Norway. The prison is organized as a small, local community with about 80

  • buildings, roads, beach zones, a football field, and agricultural land. The farming

  • and even buy arts and crafts made by the prisoners themselves.

  • Cebu Prison in the Philippines is famous for its dancing inmates. It was an evolution of
