Hey guys,
Code: Select all
NOTE: This thread does not encourage nor advocate any criminal activities or otherwise breaking the law of the state/country you may reside in.
Urban exploration (often shortened as urbex or UE) is the exploration of man-made structures, usually abandoned ruins or not usually seen components of the man-made environment. Photography and historical interest/documentation are heavily featured in the hobby and, although it may sometimes involve trespass onto private property, this is not always the case and is of innocent intention.

I though I'd start a thread and share with you guys some of the places I have been to, as well as photo's I have taken there. Starting with an abandoned care home near where I live.

Next are a couple of pic's from this big glass building downtown, I really like this place because it just look's so damn strange from the outside, I'll try get an outside view pic soon. Also there is a large office building next door which is also derelict, but I have yet to find a way in without breaking and entering.

I saw some of these and the video a few days ago when you posted it around. It looks pretty interesting, wouldn't mind doing some of that myself.
