10 abandoned buildings are naturally 'occupied'

There are places in the world that have long been abandoned by humans, leaving nature completely occupied. It often creates landscapes that are both majestic and scary.

1. Graun church tower, in Lake Reschen (Italy)

Graun Church on Lake Reschen in South Tyrol (Italy), used to be a church frequented by many people. However, an artificial lake was built in 1950 to supply the town, which submerged the historic church in the middle of the lake. Today, all that remains to be seen about the church is just a bell tower in the middle of the lake.

2. Ross Island, belonging to Andaman and Nicobar Islands (India)

It was once called "Paris of the East" . British residents (when the British Government ruled India) turned it into their home with discos, bakeries, clubs, swimming pools and gardens. After returning to Indian ownership, the island seemed to be forgotten. Today, tour groups visit this island almost every day, because it has a very beautiful landscape, but is still quite untouched

3. Orpheum Theater in New Bedford, Massachusetts (USA)

In the heyday, Orpheum Theater is a typical example of Beaux-Arts architecture, with flat roof architecture and symmetrical design. The interior of the theater is equally impressive.

The Orpheum Theater was first opened on April 15, 1912, the same time the Titanic sank, gradually closing in 1962. So far, the Orpheum Theater has never reopened. While the local urban explorers said that the project was . haunted.

4. Bannerman Castle, Beacon, New York (USA)

Located on Pollepel Island on the Hudson River, Bannerman Castle once served as a weapon storage place for Frank Bannerman, a Scottish ammunition agent in New York City.

The castle, built by Bannerman and his wife, is very charming, used to stay in the summer. Today, this place is forgotten and is just a visit of a few tourists interested in this historic place.

5. Michigan Central Station in Detroit, Michigan (USA)

Although Michigan Central Station was once the tallest train station in the world, it has been abandoned since 1988.

6. Rum, Büyükada or Istanbul Orphanage (Turkey)

This large wooden building is in Büyükada, off Turkey. Initially it was designed to be a luxury hotel and casino. However, it eventually turned into an orphanage in the early 20th century and was abandoned. This is Europe's largest historic wooden building, according to the World Heritage Fund.

7. Pompeii, Italy

One of the most famous eruptions of all time in 79 AD of Mount Vesuvius, completely buried Pompeii - the ancient Roman city under a "thick blanket" of volcanic ash.

The city was abandoned for nearly 2,000 years, until the adventurers discovered it was still quite intact, beneath the ground and debris in 1748.

8. Lighthouse of Mys Aniva, Sakhalin Island (Russia)

The lighthouse was built by Japanese engineers in 1939. The Mys Aniva Lighthouse is located on the coast with surrounding rocky outcrops, abandoned and eroded.

9. Dome house, Marco Island, Florida (USA)

Bob Lee built domed houses in 1981 as an environmentally friendly and closed retreat for his family on Marco Island, Florida.

Over time, the erosion of the sea has made this building block desolate. Although it cannot be used today, igloo-like structures are still off the coast of Marco Island.

10. Sathorn Building "Ghost Tower", Bangkok (Thailand)

Often referred to as "Ghost Tower" , the unique Sathorn building in Bangkok is a skyscraper (when it was built) being abandoned with mysteries.

This luxurious high-rise building was built in the 1990s, but construction was abruptly stopped after the Asian financial crisis of 1997.

As a result, the building has fallen into decay and become a paradise for those who love to explore here. Besides being a check-in destination, this is also a paradise for graffiti circles.
