XTreme Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I know that's a strange title......but this is quite a strange occurrence. Because normally I get an approximate location of abandoned villages, buildings etc via internet searches, or through scanning Google Maps and Google Earth. Well this one came from neither of those sources......it was just something I stumbled across following farm tracks on the Granada/Almeria border. I have no idea which province it's in as there are no signposts in places like that, and I don't even have a name for the village either. Because it doesn't actually exist anywhere. I'm wondering if it's one of those mythical Ghost Villages that only appears once a year or something? Anyway.....wherever it is, and whatever it may be called, this one was very unusual! Firstly I did about 20kms up some rough farm tracks...... And there it was! Now this wasn't just a few bits of rubble......there were even deserted streets. This seemed to be the main street running through it...... Empty buildings everywhere......many of whom weren't as old as the ones I normally visit. Had a look inside the ones that were accessible...... This was probably the largest area of abandoned properties that I've ever visited......yet there's no reference to it's actual existence anywhere. The bike got quite dusty and sandy covering this area, so once I got back to town it was straight to the Jet Wash. However, they'd run out of fucking water. No water cuts in town........it's just their car wash has no water! Don't fucking ask! So my day consisted of stumbling across an abandoned village that doesn't seem to have existed......and a Jet Wash that has no water! For no apparent reason! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteeclan Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 How long does it take for this stuff to crumble, seems a lot of it around you. Buildings look like a rendered stick together whatevers around. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
