The 38 Most Haunting Abandoned Places On Earth.
« on: January 09, 2014, 07:52:09 PM »
Pripyat, Ukraine




Pripyat, a city of nearly 50,000, was totally abandoned after the nearby Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986. Due to radiation, it has been left untouched ever since the incident and will be for many thousands of years into the future. Nature now rules the city in what resembles an apocalyptic movie.



Mirny Diamond Mine - Eastern Siberia, Russia

The world's second largest man-made hole, Mirny was constructed by Stalin to satisfy the Soviet Union's demand for industrial diamond. Further digging efforts were eventually abandoned when it became too difficult to continue digging this massive hole.



Gulliver’s Travels Park - Kawaguchi, Japan


Constructed in the shadow of Mt Fuji, this theme park opened in 1997. Despite financial help from the Japanese government, it lasted only 10 years before being abandoned.

The rest...

Pripyat would be cool for the shooting of some post apocalyptic movie-serie. Too bad about the radiation.

They filmed one horror movie there a couple years ago.  It was decent.  Not worth paying to see it at the movies, but worth the DVD rental.
