Smack in the middle of Bulgaria is the Buzludzha Monument, the 'flying saucer'. At one time, it was one of the most celebrated monuments dedicated to communism. When communism bit the dust in Bulgaria, the edifice was abandoned. Something about this place screams paintball war.

photo #9 looks like somebody returning to the mothership
It's looks like the old Power Ranger's command Center
'dudes, we gotta go, communism is over'
'but this place is sweet.'
'we have to abandon it. those are the rules'
This Should be a Halo Map
number 8 is like a scene from the movie "Commuinst Independence Day"
"We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going –
wait, if we abandon this place we get a McDonalds
well fuck ya lets go!!!
shame they didn't keep it repaired, it would have made for a great film set
Maybe if Communism hadn't been a crushing economic failure they would have had the money to keep it repaired.
You capitalist fanboys are so ridiculous, stop trolling the thread, Keith
Communism totally pwns capitalism
That must be why every single communist country FAILED, and every capitalist country continues to WIN.
China?
shut up mcfly….fucking making valid points and shit….whats wrong with you?
China is a socialist, not communist, country – because communism FAILED there.
Ever heard of The People's Republic of China? Dumbass…
Not very communist these days…
1. China is not communist but socialist 2. China is FAIL. They have 1 billion people, no healthcare, no human rights, censorship, and a fuckload of other problems…. moron.
Bulgaria's next super club? Who's in? We could probably pick it up for a few thousand US dollars haha. That place looks badass!
idk the middle of no where part has me worried
That's the best part, no Environmental Health officers telling you to turn it down at 3am. I'll DJ that place anytime. Preferably psy-trance, but house, whatever.
Why the fuck would you want US Dollars?
In Soviet Bulgaria, Communism abandons you!
fight club.
this place is so full of win.
Even better. Fight club during the week, nightclub at the weekends. Can I suggest, strip-club on Sundays?
need to get me one of those
Fallout 4, n'est ce pas?
haha
Actually EVERYTHING about this place SCREAMS Paintball War
fuck yeah cool ambush shit hagin from the ceiling
Oh no. Nothing phallic in the nature of the design…nope…just a big ole tower with a circular base…
Maybe you just have penis on the mind?
Cockeyed?
If I ever look down and see something that's shaped like that structure, it will either be because I am laying on the asphalt after having been run over by a steamroller, or b/c my wife beat my testicles into a pancake for sleeping with her younger sister.
BOTY @ the Saucer!
It was a space ship, MIB planted it there…
And on the pedestal these words appear:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look upon my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzz
communism always fails…as it will in America.
You obviously do not know the definition of Communism. You must have gone to one of those American public schools (i.e. socialist).
airsoft is better : P
What a shame it’s been allowed to fall apart. That place looks really cool. I’m surprised sone rich person hasn’t bought it and turned it into a house. It had/has real potential for being an awesome abode. I don’t really understand how it was some sort of monument to communism, though…. It looks too *grand* and not as functional as I would expect.
Check out the Valley of the Fallen in Spain, it centers around Socialism not Communism, but good none the less. Another dying edifice.
Do a Google Earth search for 'Bulgaria Buzludzha' and you'll zoom right to it. Make sure the terrain is on and look at the mountain from a low angle. Very cool.
Ok Im thinking Halo
That would make a sweet house – after redecorating of course. Very weird.
Did anybody else originaly think it was a giant toilet?
