These places were abandoned years ago. Look at them today




City Under Water – Shicheng, China

Aquaman fans will be amazed when they see that China has its own Atlantis! This underwater city has been trapped in time since 1959 when the construction of the Xin’an River Hydroelectric Power Plant caused it to flood deliberately.

Strangely enough, the water protects the city from the normal erosion that happens with rain and wind, so it remains in relatively good condition 60 years later. As you can see, divers can go and explore the city. Would you dare to come down and visit it?

An Underground Station – New York, USA

This secret subway station is located below City Hall in New York City. It was a long-awaited project due to its ‘luxury real estate’ location, and a lot of effort was put into its initial designs – maybe that’s why it looks so much better than the ones we see today!

Unfortunately, its twists and turns made it unsafe for newer trains to navigate. The station was later closed in 1945 and left alone until today. Occasionally, it is open for walking tours.
