What is Urbex?
Urban Exploration — or Urbex for short — is the art of discovering the hidden, forgotten, and off-limits corners of the man-made world. From crumbling factories and abandoned hospitals to underground tunnels and decaying mansions, urbex is all about uncovering the stories left behind in places time has nearly erased.
It’s not just about cool photos (though you’ll get plenty of those) — it’s about curiosity, history, mystery, and the quiet thrill of standing in a space few have seen in years.
Urbex isn’t about destruction or danger. It’s about respect: for the spaces, their history, and the people who once filled them. Explorers live by the motto:
"Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints."
Whether you're in it for the history, the photography, or the adventure — urbex offers a unique way to see the world from a completely different angle.
