Disturbing Abandoned Locations




 

5. San Zhi Resort, Taiwan

The rusting, abandoned UFO-shaped buildings just outside of Taipei, Taiwan were intended as exclusive destinations for the wealthy and the elite. Built in the 1980s, construction of the Pod City was halted by the government due to unexplained deaths that occurred in the area. It was so shrouded in mystery that today even the locals are afraid to get near it.

 

6. Prypiat, Ukraine

A completely abandoned, silent, radioactive city in northern Ukraine, this once housed as many as 50,000 people, most of them workers and scientists of the Chernobyl Nuclear Plant. When a small reactor malfunctioned in 1986, the city was evacuated for safety reasons. Prypiat has been a desolate place since then and along with its buildings you can also see the giant Ferris wheel at the amusement park made for the families of the workers. Today, it wouldn’t be smart to enter the Zone of Alienation, a 30-kilometer radius that is directly affected by the radiation.
