that particular place is stable although higher floors are missing most railings. getting to the top roof requires using a dislodged door as a makeshift stair while behind you is a stairway with no railings and like a four story drop if you were to fall in the central gap. “asbestos dust” wasn’t a random joke either, i suspect there is a layer of asbestos in the roofing material.
other than that it’s fairly safe
[edit] oh yeah and another roof has wooden junk with rusty nails poking out, i pierced my boot there once. basically avoid the roofs if you want to be safe, everything bad is concentrated on the roofs. but the roofs also have best views soooo

omg do u live in sakartvelo? i adored visiting so much. i was very guarded there and armenia but i let myself explore a few abandoned places, especially in armenia. ur photos inspire me to do more. i feel a kind of foreboding sense of being trapped and vanishing into those spaces but the eerieness is something i adore. i can only imagine the sensation of venturing through the vastness of that place…





i didn’t take many photos but i also explored abandoned tracks and places around the buffer zone in cyprus by bicycle.

Was there much reverb in that bath house? When ever I go into abandoned buildings I try and capture the reverb.

Not much. It's either the shape of the building is not conducive or just that there is a bigass hole in the ceiling and windows on all sides.
