The scary ghost town of San Zhi, Taiwan

You may be surprised by the architectural line of this abandoned city in the north of Taiwan .It was a really unique project started in 1978, where it was intended to raise a district of futuristic lines to turn it into a residential holiday area, where most of the houses will remember flying saucers rather than ordinary buildings with roofs and chimneys.

But something went wrong.It was a succession of concatenated incidents where accidental deaths, criticism for that "strange" architectural project and warnings from neighbors that this was land of demons and not men, ended up culminating the disaster and the consequent abandonment.

If today one of those responsible is asked what actually happened with the city of San Zhi, I would not know what to say, because nobody understands it, because, sometimes, I miss it.with more will the situations more common.

Today in Mysterious we want to talk to you about the unique futuristic city of San Zhi and its mystery.

But accidents during the construction of these houses began to put the Voice of alarm.There were adequate security measures.However, there were many people who lost their lives due to accidental accidents and without explanation, so many that the exact figures have never been given.For this reason, the works were extended more than the due, the denunciations, the investigations, the stoppages...All this caused that the financing stopped arriving, that the investors denounced and that, little by little, the conclusion that the San Zhi city was perhaps not a good idea.
