Buzludzha Monument, a striking Brutalist structure atop a peak in the Balkan Mountains. Built in 1974 to commemorate the founding of the Bulgarian Social Democratic Party. It was abandoned and in decay for many years, now it is being restored.
Les Thermes Bleus, a thermal spa complex in #France, has been abandoned since the 1980s. The oval bathing pool has beautiful blue tiles and the corridors feature similar tiles. Lost in time, decaying peacefully.
The abandoned ship La Grande Hermine in Jordan Harbour near St. Catherines, Ontario. The masts have since been removed, so it doesn't seem nearly as picturesque anymore.
Feeling lost and alone? Why not venture into this misty wasteland of decaying columns and abandoned castles? The eerie silence and crumbling ruins will surely lift your spirits. Who do you think lived here? Comment below
A hobby I picked up during covid lockdowns was exploring abandoned buildings, though I stick to ones that are sort of semi-public. Here's a shot from the Barber Paper Mill in Georgetown, Ontario.
I am Urban Explorer since 2007 – when exploring wasn't mainstream at all. On Birdsite, I was „UrbExEu“, but I decided against creating a separate account for this on Mastodon.
In the future, I will present one or the other of my works on this account from time to time – because this is one of my facets as well. Sometimes commented, sometimes not. As my photos tell you what I'm not able to say.
