China's Abandoned Wonderland


UK based photographer, Catherine Hyland made this beautiful and haunting video of Wonderland, a theme park project that started in 1998 just outside of Beijing. It was supposed to be the largest theme park in Asia. Unfortunately, the project was soon abandoned after the developers and the local farmers could not agree on the rights of the land and the funding was withdrawn. What is left behind now are structures in various states of completion that anyone can wander through and explore. Check out this surreal disney-like wasteland.
