- The Burj Al Babas is an abandoned ghost town in Turkey filled with Disneyland-like castles.
- Construction of the luxury community began in 2014 and cost $200 million.
- When Turkey’s economy fell, the project halted. Today, 587 castles remain empty.
A town of castles called the Burj Al Babas in northwest Turkey was originally designed to draw foreign vacationers.
After more than 500 were built and $200 million was invested in the property, Turkey’s economy fell, and so did the Burj Al Babas, The New York Times reported.
Today, 587 villas sit empty, forming a ghost town, Yes Theory reported. Take a look inside.
