When one day every attempt at entering a building failed, I decided that Hasard de Cheratte was the best option for the day, as I was pretty sure that you simply can not fail to get in there. Cheratte is cliche and trashed as hell now, but it still was a nice playground and I've learned some coal mining history! Though I'm really hitting myself in the head for not going there 10 years ago.

I love the second shot! That place looks pretty trashed but atleast it made for some good pictures!

These are excellent shots. I had the pleasure of going there last year and loved it! The townsfolk are pretty friendly as well. =)

Thanks guys!

@ Granuaile, we didn't have the pleasure of meeting anyone, I heard someone asks for money when you enter from the street so we took the back entrance ;)

@ Misunderstood, you should come over once!

First time in years I've actually clicked a thread on here and been impressed by the photos and location despite being thoroughly trashed.

Bravo.

Some places are cliche for a very good reason, and this is one of them.

We decided to hike up the hill by the drain in the back and skip going in the front. The only thing that bothered me was the "trail" most people used to go in and out was in someones backyard.Everyone was pretty nice though.No one we met spoke English, but thankfully My friend spoke French.All in all it was lovely. =) I hope to go back one day.
