hidden places

Concealed nooks, crannies

Hidden places are locations concealed from view or kept secret—spots not easily found or accessed.

The phrase suggests mystery or deliberate obscurity: She knew all the hidden places in the old house, The map revealed hidden places in the forest.

Hidden places may be physical spaces or metaphorical ones: the hidden places of the heart.
