San Zhi - An Amazing but Abandoned Housing Complex in Taiwan



Here are some amazing pictures of an abandoned housing complex called San Zhi outside of Taipei, Taiwan.

It was apparently built in the early 1980s as a series of vacation homes marketed towards affluent Taipei residents seeking to get out of the city.

The speculation about why the site was abandoned varies, with the most interesting being that a series of fatal accidents occurred during construction, causing locals to believe the site was haunted, and therefore instigating the developer’s decision to stop construction (and also putting a stop to any future redevelopment).
