Another ruins of the church, Kullamaa, Estonia

Visited by Skkye 8.4.2014. Just a quick peek in an another beauty resting by the side if the road.

A silent Orthodox Church, Märjamaa, Estonia

Visited by Skkye 5.4.2014. My couchsurfing host in Märjamaa introduced this place to me when we were biking around the town. The evening light was perfectly warm and made this place feel safe and peaceful. We climbed in from the window and jumped to the floor which was covered with fallen wooden parts of the roof. We were moving slowly since there was a great possibility to step on a rusty nail. One of my favourites was a huge wooden bug hanging from the roof, in my mind it's the lonely caretaker of the church. Somehow I still felt the sacredness in this place, even though it must have been abandoned for a long time - maybe it was the spirit of hundreds of prayers people had read there long ago.

Random unvisited buildings, Central America

Not visited, but photographed by jonahi in summer 2012. The wonderful old church is in Costa Rica (I was very disappointed to notice that the barbed wire fence didn't have any holes!) and the rest are in Honduras and Nicaragua. I found those walls with holes with signs "For Sale" quite funny, but maybe they are actually selling the lots and not the houses, or what's left of them. That huge house in the bushes looked very scary until I noticed that someone was drying their laundry there. Maybe the first floor was inhabited, but I'm sure that the rest wasn't.
These were of course only a minority of abandoned places that I saw, but it's not easy to take photos from a moving bus when your camera is in your backbag, and it may not be too safe to visit abandoned places in these gang violence ridden countries.
