Recently I found two different web sites about abandoned places. The photos are very compelling, giving you a sense of lives past, belongings left behind.
Gunkanjima - Views of an Abandoned Island: A little-known island off the coast of Japan that was basically a mining town. Abandoned in 1974.
Elena's Motorcyle Ride through Chernobyl: Chernobyl is of course well-known, but this photo journal is just amazing. There are so many stories of people's lives, and what they had to abandon.
If you have some time to be thoughtful and introspective, these sites are well worth looking at.
