The Hotel del Salto was opened in 1924 near Tequendama Falls, Bogotá River, Colombia and closed down in the 1990’s. People speculate that the hotel was haunted and this is why no one wanted to stay here but another reason could be that the river was polluted.

On the top of the world at Svalbard, an archipelago situated between Norway and the North Pole, is a place that the world forgot for nearly a decade, a Russian mining settlement established by Sweden in 1910 but then sold to the Soviet Union in 1927, then completely abandoned in 1998. It’s only reachable with driving 140 km with a snowmobile during winter.

Abandoned buildings repurposed into astonishing new ones.
