$200 MLN Abandoned Disney Castle Village You Won't Believe Exist

Just picture this scene: rows of identical building looking like palaces straight from a Disney movie. But they're all empty and form an abandoned town. Burj Al Babas is situated in Turkey and hundreds of these castle-style villas stay abandoned, mid-construction. There were also plans to build a shopping center and cinemas there... but it was never to be finished. What could go wrong? Here're 5 abandoned towns straight out of a fantasy or science fiction movie. Let's learn their stories and why these places that once flourished, turned into lifeless spots... #brightside Preview photo credit: Disneyland Ribbon banner: By Xologon/Depositphotos.com, https://depositphotos.com/165353482/s...
