It’s a pity that marvelous old architecture is left to rot, often due to lack of funds for repairs. But there’s beauty to be found in the ruins, as you’ll see in this collection of abandoned hotels from all over. The stories these walls could tell! Pictured is the Bokor Palace Hotel and Casino in Cambodia. Link -Thanks, Andy!

I was hoping there would be an article on another Orlando resort that was abandoned near Kissimmee. We drove past on the way to Disney one day and our tour guide said that it was a resort aimed at Chinese tourists. It's a fully complete hotel that looks like it was transported to the middle of Florida from turn of the century China. He said it opened to horrible reviews because the owners had mistakenly used a color or symbol that was seen as bad luck, so no one wanted to stay there after a while and it was too expensive to fix.
It's so eerie to see... Temples and gardens completely overgrown with bamboo and pine trees right in central Florida. I wish I knew more about it, or at least could find out more on the net...

It's been bugging me for the last month! I'm forwarding the link to my dad, too. He's gonna be wicked excited to read about it :)
Does this look like Stephan Kings Overlook Hotel in The Shining to anyone else?
"Hotel Fife, Scotland"
I was looking so hard for ghosts in the clip that when I saw actual living people I was briefly convinced they were ghosts!!
