Well, actually, these are not secret places at all, but the fact is you will not see them on a postcard. I took my family shopping and along the way, I made a few interesting snaps.
The thing is that this place is so big, it takes a huge chunk of a town, but because we are on the street level it is difficult to see or even realize that.
The whole place looks like a ghost town but for more than one reason it has the lights and surveillance. Creepy.
Another detail is a guarding station, above street level that used to have a balcony, or something, but now the entire chunk of concrete and probably a staircase is cut off. I was wondering why they left the rest...
In places where there is no tick and tall concrete wall, there is instead a barbed wire and high steel fence. Still, no people anywhere...
Most of the industrial parts are completely blended with the place, that you can only realize how alien they are to the rest of it when you actually take a shot like this one.
Maybe the most annoying and subversively dystopian element is the fact that the pipes go above and across the street.
A street goes directly though all of this, so it is separated with the tall walls that were not built at once, so tehy are made of parts that are much older than the rest.
Most of this complex is covered in this... a vegetation took place wherever people forgot to do something about it. In fact this looks nice, but I am not sure if this is in purpose or it just happened.
I will finish my photo quest though this industrial complex, or the ghost town by posting this picture. It is the sun pictured though the pipes above the street.
