[KISH] Searching For Abandoned Building I
So.. I was suddenly in the mood to search for broken building this week (well.. I’ve been trying to search for a while..)
Somehow i have a thing for broken places, used to love the “Brick work” in Toronto (used to be a brick factory, got discarded for years)
First stop i went was M50. on Moganshan Lu (莫干山路）
there is a building I’ve seen a few time.. but never got the chance to find way to access it.
here’s the building. It is a 3 floored building but i i don’t think upstair can be access.. the floor already hollowed.. probably not safe to get up there.

Here’s the 2nd part… let’s continue where i left off in part 1.
