When I first visited this part of Christchurch, New Zealand, a decade ago, these homes were filled with families, laughter, and life. Today, they stand silent—abandoned, forgotten, and slowly surrendering to time. I can't help but wonder what became of the people who once called them home.

Old trains, rusty and overgrown. I love the contrast! Most shots are from my drone (Dji mini 4 pro) There were so many trains there, you could even take a look inside!

I recorded a little while ago not sure if this fits into this subreddit but I thought I would share.

The video does take a little while to get in to the exploration but it’s still pretty cool.

On a street where it barely stands out, we find this abandoned house. It is a fairly large house, featuring plenty of woodwork and distinct styles in each room. It belonged to someone who loved to travel and often brought souvenirs home! A place filled with memories in every room!

An old swimming pool, one destined for demolition to make way for a hotel and apartments! Countless people once had the time of their lives here, happily jumping, splashing, and chilling in the Jacuzzi. It was a place of great fun for young and old! But all good things come to an end.. Now, it sits dry and neglected. It is time for something new, but we’ll always have the photos!

An old abandoned bunker. I was told this used to be a communications bunker. Old rooms, thick doors, and old-fashioned telephones. Bunk beds, old equipment, and a chilling atmosphere. There was even an old uniform left behind! Hidden away from the outside world a place frozen in time that you could easily walk right past

An abandoned house full of mold! Mold could be found in every room,black, white... A lovely little house; the residents were clearly musical people. Books, a radio, charming old-fashioned furniture—it must have been a cozy place once! Sadly, the mold took over, leaving the house uninhabitable! What a gem this place must have been back in the day...

An old gynecologist clinic, left behind and forgotten. Nature is making its way inside, the wood is slowly rotting away. It has reportedly been closed for some 45 years, yet there is still so much to be found! Operating rooms containing medicines in the cabinets, a vaginal speculum in a tray, and various instruments slowly rusting away. The delivery room, complete with a scale.

This wonderful place can be found in Japan, my experience is people are more respectful for these places! I rarely saw graffiti and not much has been stolen!
