The Very Last Stop
When I was exploring a (rather famous) abandoned retirement home in Eastern Germany I thought about how this place was the last stop on their life's journey for so many people.... until I ventured into the basement where I found the REAL very last stop: this sickroom.
Urbex is short for Urban Exploration. It is the act of going to and exploring lost and forgotten places that are not visited and often even inaccessible to the general public. Such places include abandoned factories, hospitals, schools, offices and other derelict buildings, unused nuclear bunkers, old military buildings, disused rail yards etc. The real urbexer will NOT break anything in (or to get into) these places. In fact that is considered VERY bad form. But if access can be obtained without causing any damage, then that's considered fair game. Vandalism and graffiti are NOT allowed. It's like nature photography: Leave only footprints, take only pictures.
