Tianducheng, Hangzhou, China
Although it may look like Paris in a post-apocalyptic time, this is actually a place located in Tianducheng district in China. This failed real estate venture began in 2007, in hopes of recreating the City of Love, which included an exact replica of the Eiffel Tower and Champs-Elysees. The place is completely abandoned now.
City Methodist Church, Gary, Indiana
City Methodist Church was built in 1926 using donations from U.S. Steel. Located in Gary, Indiana (Michael Jackson’s birthplace!), it was a stunning site, complete with stained glass and nine stories. It was shut down in 1975 after the decline of the steel industry. Although abandoned, it was featured in films like Transformers: Dark of the Moon and A Nightmare On Elm Street.
