    Finally, it's spring! This means that our travel season starts now. In one week, we'll be back on the road, exploring for a few months in many different countries in Europe. For regular updates follow us on Instagram and Facebook. For live posts from the road, you can join our channel on Telegram (you have to be a Patreon supporter for that). Of course, we work hard to bring new videos your way while we're traveling. In three weeks, we will post a BIG one. Please come see the channel then again!

    I just can't comprehend how an splendorous place like this can be left in this state, it's absurd. It could be such an amazing museum!

    • @BrokenWindowTheoryUrbex
      @BrokenWindowTheoryUrbex  Год назад +5

      This is true but just imagine how much money you'd need to maintain the site, and a museum doesn't make real profits. So, it's the state that has to pay for this place - but at the same time, it could do something completely different with that money. It's a tough decision for sure.

    This is one of the most interesting abandoned places I've seen yet. Typically, the places I've seen have the decay evenly spread out. By that, I mean that everything in the building is in a similar state. Yet this building feels like an anomaly. On the surface, it looks like a perfectly good building, with only bits and pieces being decayed. The tiles are clean, mostly dry, and almost entirely intact, yet there's moss growing in the places where water has gotten in. And in some spots, you see plants growing. The paint on the walls is in near-perfect shape in many places , and some rooms look pristine and dust-free. Yet a select few rooms really show how much time has passed. Even a majority of the ceiling windows seem to be intact, something which I'd have expected to fail first. Yet despite 20 years passing, they look like they're only been left for a few years tops. Some of those hallways genuinely look like they're still in-use with how good they look!
    All this is to say: The building looks simultaneously perfect, and decayed. Almost as if it were recently abandoned, but with a few holes poked in the roof here and there to accelerate decay in certain spots only. The lack of graffiti certainly helps this notion.

    The entrance hall is truly spectacular. Hard to comprehend how this structure can be left to rot. Once water gets in that is the death of any building.
    The amount of craftsmanship to put together all that tiling, skylights, arches and decorations is testament to the pride builders had in the past.

  • @sergpie

    So excited! The tilework reminds me of the thermal baths at Montecatini in Italy. That one, thankfully, hasn't been abandoned yet😅

    • @BrokenWindowTheoryUrbex

    What a stunning display of architecture and decor. I love when you have the chance to film this kind of place, it is perfect for your style of cinematography, providing sensational angles and contrasts between light and shadow.
    It must have been amazing to visit this spa in its prime…the opulence and brilliance of the tile work evokes a sense of the great Eastern palaces. I love to see Nature forming mineral deposits, and plants still reaching for the light…beautiful. Thank you for this, as always.🖤🇨🇦

Thanls a lot for sharing the insights of this great place. Hope it will stay in such a great shape as long as possible - just natural decay and nature taking over.
    I can imagine it was really hard to choose the best angles and views inside the building and later on in the video edit process. Very good work. Looking forward for all upcoming videos.

    You always leave such a philosophical thought at the end of the video. Indeed nothing lasts forever, but the beauty and detail of this place would be a shame to lose. At first glance it looks amazingly well preserved, but that's just the nature of ceramic tiles. Everything else is giving in to the elements as nature reclaims...
