secret ruins



Imagine finding places like these... secret places, ruins. Once lived in and marvelled, then one day left and forgotten. I find these types of places so beautiful and sad at the same time. How could a structure so beautiful be forgotten and left to ruin?
But then i think there is something beautiful in the ruins. A certain mystery of old times gone by...

  3. I found a secret ruin with some friends once when we went on a school trip to a little village in paris. Nothing was open (shops and stuff) and we noticed this little really steep hill so we all climbed up it and found this little woods so we was just walking around the wood and playing music and we came accoss a half knocked down castle. Best day of my Life :)xxx

  7. I too love these images and the inherent ideas of time and lives passed. I am obsessed about how as individuals we leave our mark upon the world; the ferris wheel is amazing! why would it have been left abandoned like that? so many secrets and unaswered questions. Fantastic...
