Near the town I live in, there is this big Coal/Biomass Powerplant.
It started producing power (580MW) in 1982 and closed down in 2015.
I visited this huge site in 2017, just before they started demolishing the buildings.
This is still not done, but visiting the site now is very hard or impossible.
We explored this place in 2 days. The whole area was pristine, no graffity or vandalism.
Just signs of decay and previous accidents when the plant was functional.
I have about 500 pictures of this visit, so here is a small selection
Day 1: Mostly outsides and climbing the large structures
Lots of walkways!
There was an explosion a few years ago, when the plant was still in function.
This looked very sci-fi.
The scale of this is enormous!
Rusty pipe!
Day 2: Inside
The insides of the main building was very densely packed with million pipes and staircases.
Part of the control panel.
Main generator room
Control room.
A picture through the glass window inside a big conveyor tower.
An actual sticker on a machine. It described our time here pretty accurately!
