The Patriot (2000)
The Patriot is a historical war film set during the American Revolutionary War in 1776. It stars Mel Gibson, Chris Cooper, and Heath Ledger. The Spanish Mission in the film was a custom-built set, and rather than removing it when filming wrapped, director Roland Emmerich chose to leave it behind.
The mission blends in really well with its surroundings - a 170-acre preserve of the Cypress Gardens in South Carolina. If they look familiar, other than being in The Patriot, it is because the ruins have been used in several other films since, including 2004's The Notebook.

These Are the Most Deserted Places on Earth
A circle of people underwater?! You'll soon find out more about that place, and it's not the only abandoned place underwater like you can see on this page too. There are so many places around the world that have been abandoned. Some of these places are still picturesque, such as deserted amusement parks. But some deserted spots, such as houses or small towns, are not that pleasing to the eye. Yet, the mystery and the details of such places tend to intrigue so many people. Here are some of the most beautiful abandoned places in the world and the stories behind them.
![These Are the Most Deserted Places on Earth](https://posts-cdn.kueez.net/p1nkwvNOxo0PoVe6/image-uQxz4QOTgFETps3d.png)
Christ of the Abyss, Italy
The bottom of the sea can hide so many secrets. One of those secrets is this bronze statue more than 15 meters deep into the sea. Sculptor Guido Galletti created this statue which represents Jesus Christ, looking up toward Heaven and offering a benediction of peace. Originally, there were three statues like this sculpted and placed into the water.
This statue is the first one that was built, and in 1954 it was placed near the spot where first Italian scuba diver Dario Gonzatti died. The statue was removed in 2003 so that it could be restored due to a large amount of corrosion. In July 2004, the statue was returned to the sea once the restoration was complete.
The Chatillon Car Graveyard, Belgium
This car graveyard is located in Chatillon, a small village in Belgium. All of these cars used to belong to US soldiers. While the soldiers were in Belgium during World Word II, they often obtained cars. However, once the war ended the soldiers had to return home and leave their cars behind.
The reason behind this is that it was up to every soldier to decide whether he wanted to have the car shipped back home. Since the soldiers themselves would have to pay the shipping, they decided to leave the cars behind. They drove to the countryside and parked their cars at the top of a hill that was hidden from view. Now nature has taken over, as moss has grown like a new style paint job from doors and bumpers. The abandoned cars at the center of Belgium’s forest have now been removed, mostly for environmental reasons but some stolen by thieves.
Abandoned Tu-144 Super-Sonic Passenger Jet, Kazan City
Why would anyone park a TU-144 passenger jet in their backyard, and then abandon it afterward? If someone was trying to hide this jet, they didn't pick out the most strategic location.
The jet was first discovered by people who were walking by. Then word spread quickly and soon photographers started arriving and taking pictures and videos. Some even used drones and others actually started the jet up. Certain moving parts still partially work. It is quite interesting to see what people keep in their backyards.
Six Flags Theme Park, New Orleans, USA
Six Flags, a theme park in New Orleans, is one of the reminders of Hurricane Katrina that struck the Gulf Coast on August 25, 2005. People in America and all over the world still remember the tragic event and its consequences. Hurricane Katrina didn't only ravage Six Flags but also many other properties that were abandoned afterward.
Over the years, there have been a few suggestions for this theme park. Some wanted to demolish everything while others suggested restoring the park. So far, no action has been taken.
China Ghost Towns
Yes - Towns. In plural. China has been trying to shift populations from place to place, and without any concern for price tags, whole towns and cities were built only to stay empty later on when changes have been made.
So why continue with it? Again, they have no concern for price when it comes to decisions made for "the Chinese people". The big cities come with underground train stations, giant buildings, stores and shopping malls schools and hospitals, but the only thing missing - is people.
Spooky Hotel on a Cliff, Colombia
This hotel used to be majestic - It was seated on the edge of a cliff and surrounded by beautiful mountains. Guests could enjoy observing the beautiful landscape and breathtaking waterfall. This hotel was the perfect choice for a vacation.
Unfortunately, one event made visiting this hotel repulsive. Bogota River was contaminated with industrial waste and the authorities were not willing to try and fix this problem. After some time, visitors stopped coming entirely and the hotel had to close down. What makes things even worse is that some people used the cliff to commit suicide. That is why there are some rumors circulating that the hotel is now haunted.
Deserted Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Graveyard
All these motorcycles were actually owned by the police of Puente Piedra, a district in Lima, Peru. Since they weren't able to afford the maintenance of the bikes, they eventually stopped being in use.
Some of the bikes were sold to Harley lovers who couldn't obtain parts in any other way. They used the parts for other bikes and sold them. The police bikes were sold in auctions for $1,300. But those who bought the parts for other bikes could sell them for up to $12,000.
The Navel of the Earth
The Navel of the Earth is one of the largest man-made holes in the world. But, this place that looks so empty and ugly actually was known for the production of diamonds that could make any man rich beyond his wildest dreams.
The Mir Diamond Mine is located in Mirny, Eastern Siberia, Russia. Diamonds were spilling out of this hole from 1957 to 2001. The mine was closed in 2011.
An Abandoned Store, Fukushima
After the Fukushima nuclear disaster, so many buildings were abandoned, including this store. The Fukushima catastrophe in 2011 is one of the greatest catastrophes in Japanese history. An earthquake and tsunami hit the region in March 2011, causing the evacuation of more than 300,000 people. The earthquake damaged a nuclear power plant and caused a leak forcing the entire population of Fukushima to remain in their evacuated location.
The abandoned store thus appears as a post-apocalyptic scene with over $135,000 worth of gaming consoles and goods left inside, the cash register filled with money and vending machines stocked with snacks and drinks. Fukushima, therefore, has become an eerie and abandoned ghost town.
A Space Shuttle at the Baikonur Cosmodrome
The Baikonur Cosmodrome was a secret site unknown to the West built by Russia in Kazakhstan. Yuri Gagarin, the first cosmonaut, was launched in April 1961 from this site.
The space shuttle in the picture is called "Buron" and it flew only once in November 1988. The cabin can hold 6 passengers and there is also space for extra passengers in the cargo area. The shuttle was meant to send 30 tons to space and return 20 tons to Earth. Prior to launch, 24 tests were carried out and 15 of them were fully automatic. The program was stopped in 1991 when the Communist government fell, leaving half-finished space shuttles rotting. One shuttle was destroyed in 2002 when the hanger it was housed in was collapsed in a storm, leaving the site abandoned and isolated.
Abandoned Ferris Wheel in Chernobyl
Most of Chernobyl's 1980s citizens highly anticipated the opening of the Pripyat City Amusement Park. The park was supposed to be opened on May 1, 1986. However, on April 26 the same year the Chernobyl disaster happened.
This Ferris wheel is a reminder of the former amusement park but also the incident that happened in 1986. The park did open briefly on April 27 and people could enjoy the rides for a couple of hours until the evacuation order was handed down.
Atkins Hall Apartments, Ireland
A complex that is today known as the Atkins Hall Apartments used to be a mental hospital. In the mid-1800s, these apartments were actually an asylum that was three stories high and three blocks long. Women were situated on one side and men on the other.
Besides the asylum, other buildings, such as a gate lodge and a church, were included here. Nowadays, the complex was renovated and turned into apartments. The other half of the complex is still abandoned. We truly wonder why...
Abandoned Dome Houses, Florida
It is truly beautiful to live inside a circular home on a beach. These houses were built by Bob Lee in 1980. Lee was an oil producer in Cape Romano below Naples, Florida. These houses were truly beautiful. They were even solar-powered and self-sustaining. So, why were they abandoned?
The reason why these houses are abandoned is Mother Nature because hurricanes completely destroyed them. John Tosto bought them in 2005, shortly before Hurricane Wilma which damaged the domes and also washed away a part of the coastline. Nowadays, these houses can be reached only by boat.
Control Room 4 At Chernobyl
For decades after the 1986 Chernobyl disaster, the site was off-limits to visitors of any sort. But in July 2019, Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky opened Chernobyl as an official tourist attraction in order to reinvent Ukraine's brand, saying, "We must give this territory of Ukraine a new life."
Tourists are able to enter the control room at Reactor 4 (where radiation is 40,000 times higher than normal levels) wearing protective gear and only for five minutes. Upon exiting, they have to take multiple tests to gauge their potential exposure.
A Beautiful, yet Abandoned Cottage in Stradbally, Ireland
There is an abandoned yet beautiful cottage in the forest near Stradbally, Ireland. The cottage was built in the late 1800s. What is remarkable about this cottage is its unusual blue roof.
This cottage is definitely an escape from the busy city life. It would be the perfect location for a weekend getaway. However, many would agree it is definitely not an ideal place to live unless you want to become a hermit. Just imagine living here all alone, isolated from everything and everyone.
Ferris Wheel at an Abandoned Theme Park, Japan
This gigantic Ferris Wheel is the only ride inside this abandoned theme park. The Kejonuma Leisure Land was opened in 1979 and had 200,000 visitors every year. It offered not only fun rides but accommodation. You could stay at campsites or in small huts. Those who do not enjoy spending time outdoors could stay at a hotel.
The theme park closed down in 2000. But, the owner did not abandon the place completely. Instead, he went on to drill for hot water, leaving the Ferris wheel intact yet out of function.
The Swinger's Tiki Palace Chattanooga, Tennessee
The Swinger's Tiki Palace is located in the Smokey Mountains, Chattanooga, Tennesse. Originally, it was supposed to be the dream home of Billy Hull, a strip club owner. The house was built in the 1970s. It had 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, a playboy bunny pool, and a jacuzzi/sauna for 12 people. Mirrors were placed all over the house and almost every room had a TV monitor and intercom system.
Unfortunately, Billy had to give up his home for prison. In 1973, his wife's boyfriend was shot and it turned out that Billy hired the shooter. Billy was found guilty of that murder and two others and received 20 years in prison. The house was listed for sale in 2014. By 2015, the home had been severely vandalized and was in foreclosure. The property was seized by the city for unpaid taxes. The Swinger’s Tiki Palace was condemned and demolished on September 7, 2017.
An Underwater Sculpture Park, Grenada
This unusual and wonderful place located in the Caribbean sea at the Molinere Bay resort was the first of its kind to be created. It was designed by British sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor and opened to the public for the first time in May 2006.
You can access the park by boat and take a guided tour to dive through these sculptures of human shapes. Located at different depths in the ocean, they are made of concrete and aim to depict the daily life of the local population.
The Selma Plantation Estate, Virginia
The Selma plantation estate used to be a very popular place. After the original owners died, the estate had several other owners. One time, a fire broke out and destroyed the home completely. However, the new owner decided to restore the place and bring it back to life.
Eventually, the estate was totally abandoned and nature took over. Even birds can be seen flying through the home. What is interesting is that the previous owners left a grand piano inside the abandoned home. Loudoun-based entrepreneur Sharon Virts and her husband Scott Miller bought the estate and started the restoration in 2016, eager to preserve a piece of local history and make it their family home.
Abandoned Fishing Hut on a Lake, Germany
This abandoned fishing hut is located inside of the Berchtesgaden National Park in Germany. The hut was built on Obersee Lake. However, when it was finally discovered it was completely empty and now has fallen into disrepair.
No information about the owners has been found yet. It is very likely that the owners were fishermen who enjoyed fishing and observing the scenery of the German Alps. What could be better than listening to the relaxing sounds of nature while waiting for the "big" one to bite?
