This explore has been 2 years in the making. I have been dreaming of going to this location science I saw it in an online article. This is what actually led me to UER. After waking up early to make a 4 hour drive I first set eyes on the buildings that for so long I wanted to explore. I spent hours on site and although it has greatly deteriorated science I first saw pictures it was just as fun as I had hoped.

1. Sit and watch me grow

Incredible! I love it. It's as if those chairs themselves, rather than a group of chatty, middle-aged birds they once held, are the ones giggling and heckling from pool-side.

Glad you liked it here. I had a similar reaction when I first heard of this place. Wanted to go so bad. But when I was there. I just thought it was the biggest pile of shit.

There are parts of this place that are really really bashed up and essentially dust. But I'd say the place as a whole is a fun time. I know I had a blast when I went last summer. Mainly because it had been on my radar since 2009 and was in my backyard at the time but still somehow took forever for me to actually stop the car. Good stuff!

I think that this place however bashed and destroyed it is will always be one of my favorite times exploring. Although I must admit that I had some trouble slowing down to focus on photography as I was so happy just to be there and look around after years of thinking about and planning the trip
