All truly beautiful houses, hotels, cinemas, and other architectural works remain beautiful even after they have been forgotten by mankind and nature has started to take over. Abandoned buildings that clearly show the mark of time look much more mysterious than their freshly-built siblings and that’s one of the reasons why they’re so charming. And that’s why they attract so many mystery lovers (including photographers) from all over the world like magnets!
