Some of the pictures reveal the glory of the past. Most beautiful I found, is the ship wreck in Sydney, Australia!!!

It's sad to see those architecturally beautiful buildings deserted. Why would anyone do that. Why didn't they try to sell them to people who would keep them up or give them to a charity in need of indoor space. To just abandon them seems criminal to me. I did think the underwater building in China was an awesome sight.

The abandoned house on Holland Island was especially poignant.

I remember that Central Train station in Detroit from when I was a kid. I'm sorry to see what has become it. Maybe some very rich person will bring it back to life.

Kolmans Kop, the Old Ghost Town in The Namib Desert, was the hive and centre of the diamond rush era which started in 1909. It became a thriving town with all imaginable modern facilities in the desert, situated about 25 km from the harbour town of Lüderitz. Eventually by 1920 no more diamonds were found in this area and the miners and people moved 270 km south to Oranjemund, and Kolmans Kop was left to the mercy of the Namib Desert. Today this Ghost Town is a popular tourist attraction.

To Cathie Roth Lonnquist I saw images from Italy, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Japan, Namib Desert in Africa, and Holland Island in USA. Nothing from China and nothing underwater???

I find looking at the screen saver pictures on our TV really relaxing. One of them, which has always fascinated my husband, is the pic of the ship covered in mangrove trees. I was amazed to discover it’s in Sydney, less than two hours from where I live. I actually looked at google earth, and there it is.

Lonnie Crisp, there must be more than one list of places out there people are seeing, the list I saw was seven places, with no Detroit train station or underwater building in China, yet people are commenting on them?.
