1. The Piano
If you abandon something made of wood, it's amazing how quickly nature will reclaim it.
2. Metal
What happens if the trash we leave isn't organic? Nature will still take over, growing all around it.
3. Train Tunnel
This is so gorgeous! I want to travel to France and take pictures here.
4. Mall, or Aquarium?
We've seen aquariums at malls, but this deserted mall has BECOME an aquarium.
Sunshine and blue skies bring positivity and joy and it's important for every woman to take full advantage of it. Even when stuck indoors, it's still possible to enjoy some good vibes.

6. Playground
How amazing is this? Nature took over an old Ferris wheel, and it looks... gorgeous. Almost like art.
7. Sand
This is an abandoned mining town in Africa.
8. Another Tunnel
This is another train tunnel in France... this one looks like it might still be in use!
9. Ghost Ship
If this old ship isn't haunted, well, it should be.
10. Tree
This is fascinating, how the roots of this tree are burrowing into the space between the pavers, growing into those sharp angles.
11. Train Station
This used to be a train station in Abkhazia... look at the medallions on the ceiling, and those gorgeous columns!
12. Cooling Tower
Is this still in use? I don't think so. It's an old nuclear power cooling tower in Belgium. Wow!
13. Growth
This tree has completely taken over an old structure in Cambodia. I wonder how long before the building is completely obscured?
14. Hotel
Can you imagine what this abandoned hotel room must have looked like before? Now the Trip Advisor rating would be... well, not good.
15. Village
This used to be a fishing village in China. I'd still live here, though... would you?
16. Train Tracks
There hasn't been a train through here in so long... look how tall that tree is!
17. Mens' Room
This is just fascinating... and there's a joke in here about "nature calling" somewhere, but this is just really kind of beautiful, isn't it?
Have you seen other pictures that show Nature taking over after humans have left? Please share!
