Haikyo (urban exploration)

In Japan, there’s a word called “haikyo,” which means “ruins.” It’s also what people call urban exploration when they visit old, abandoned places like towns, houses, hospitals, and even theme parks. I’ve explored a few of these abandoned spots during my time in Japan, but recently, I went on an adventure with some friends to see an abandoned mansion that used to belong to a millionaire. This place was mad! The previous owner seemed to really like statues because there were tons of them all around. We were very careful while exploring because there was broken glass and other dangerous stuff lying around. Check out the pictures to get a glimpse of our haikyo adventure!
