5. Encore Garden

Encore Garden in Taiwan quickly gained popularity among the locals after itā€™s construction in 1981. This theme park was known as a fun place to spend a time with the family, but unfortunately, that reputation was shattered with an unforeseeable event. In 1999, a massive earthquake occurred in Taichung City which killed more than 2,400 people. This earthquake badly damaged infrastructure around the city, with Encore Garden being no exception. The theme park did re-open, but many of the rides were too expensive to fix. Eventually, the park closed itā€™s gates for good and is now a haunting vision of what it used to be.
A walk through this eery site will present overgrown gardens, sunken cars and other rides with nightmarish Chinese opera masks smiling gleefully out of the debris. Nature is progressively taking itā€™s land back, so youā€™ll need to pick your way through long grass and other foliage to fully view the forgotten rides and attractions that lay frozen in time.

4. Gulliverā€™s Kingdom

Built near Japanā€™s iconic Mount Fiji, this short-lived theme park was doomed from the onset. The disadvantage for this theme park was tied mainly to its location which was in close proximity to Japanā€™s infamous ā€œsuicide forest.ā€ To further add to the ominous feeling for would-be theme park attendees, a former religious cult headquarters was also located in close vicinity to this attraction, so the happiness and worry-free atmosphere that should be the norm in a festive theme park was frequently anything but that for itā€™s visitors.
The park closed only four years after itā€™s debut and has remained abandoned ever since. There really is some credence to the real estate agentā€™s motto of ā€œlocation, location, location,ā€ and Gulliverā€™s Kingdom is a sad reminder that location really can be everything.

3. Six Flags New Orleans

Among the countless other properties, homes, businesses, and theme parks to be damaged during Hurricane Katrina, Six Flags New Orleans made this ill-fated list. Just 4 years after opening, Six Flags suffered catastrophic damage when Hurricane Katrina touched down upon the shores of Louisiana and changed countless lives forever.
This 140-acre amusement park sat under seven feet of floodwater for about a month following the hurricane. It was declared a total loss by Six Flags, as the extended exposure to saltwater quickly rendered most of the rides inoperable.
The City of New Orleans took over the property in 2009, but subsequent plants to build parks, outlet malls or other facilities have never come to fruition. The site has become a popular film location, however, having shared itā€™s scenery in films such as Deepwater Horizon, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and Jurassic World.

2. Discovery Island,Walt Disney World, Florida

Disney World doesnā€™t seem like the type to just let things rot and fall into ruin, now do they? That is exactly what happened with the River Country and Discovery Island aspects of Disneyā€™s operations. Just so we are clear on the degree of magnitude here, Discovery Island is an entire island off the coast of the Disneyland theme park, that was meant to be a relaxing place to view exotic birds and fauna. River Country met a similar fate, and was abandoned, and left to decay with itā€™s previous state of glory now a thig of the past.
Although these former Disney attractions are supposed to be off limits to visitors, the occasional adventurer has snuck onto Discovery Island to take a peek and has filmed their haunting findings to share with the public.

1. Waterbury, CT

In 1940, John Baptist Greco dreamed of having a place for all people, race, creed or color not applicable, to gather, be peaceful, and to be able to understand the bible better. With the assistance of a group of volunteers, this park was created, complete with small scaled areas modeled after Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Herodā€™s palace, the Garden of Eden, and other depictions of importance to the Bible.
A 56-foot tall cross with an illuminated sign that read Holy Land USA was the parkā€™s centerpiece. In itā€™s heyday during the 60s and 70s, Holy Land USA was the largest tourist attraction in Connecticut, and attracted more than 40,000 visitors per year,
In 1984, Greco shut the park down with plans to expand and improve upon the site. The expansion was left unfinished when Greco passed away in 1986.
