Abandoned Theme Parks

1. The theme park that I want to visit most is the theme park in Pypriat, Ukraine. I would like to visit the park because out of all the theme parks mentioned this was the most unique, as it was abandoned because of a chemical disaster instead of economic problems or deaths, like the other parks were. I'd also like to see how the park was affected because of the chemicals surrounding it. I not only want to visit the park, but I would also love to visit the abandoned town of Pypriat and the Chernobyl power plant. It's always been a dream of mine to visit and take pictures of Chernobyl, and visiting the park would be a bonus!

5. I would like to document the Qiandao Lake because underneath it is an abandoned city built in 25 AD, and it would be interesting to see how different buildings would look underwater. Not only is there an abandoned city, but the water is apparently crystal clear and completely drinkable, and dotted with thousands of tiny islands. It's a popular area for tourists, as each island has a different theme and activity, such as Monkey Island and The Island To Remind You Of Your Childhood.

6.  In order to take pictures of the abandoned city, I would need to invest in scuba diver gear and an underwater camera, and I would also need to learn how to scuba dive and take pictures underwater. Taking pictures of the other islands wouldn't be as hard and expensive, as there are boats for tourists to get to each island.
